Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My students are three years old, and this is their first experience in school. They are among the first three-year-olds to attend 3K in the NYC school district. They come from a low income/high poverty neighborhood in the South Bronx, and have not been afforded the opportunities that children in more well-to-do neighborhoods are given.
It's my goal to provide a classroom for my students that is welcoming, offers opportunities for exploration, and prepares them for future academic success.
My Project
My young students are working on strengthening their gross motor skills. Gross motor skills involve movements of large muscles in the arms, legs, and torso. These skills enable children to perform everyday self care tasks, such as getting dressed.
Gross motor skills are important for a healthy lifestyle.
The activity scarves and Musical Activity CD will assist my students in strengthening their gross motor skills. These supplies will be used during active playtime. They will help my students get the exercise they need, help build their strength, and support their coordination. These supplies will also add a tremendous amount of fun to indoor active playtime.
