Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 Project

For the last ten years of being an educator, I’ve been teaching music ranging from PreK to 6th grade. This is my 11th year teaching, and I’m trying a new position. I’m excited to have my own class and learn, grow, and stretch with my students.

A lot of my classroom materials that I have are music related and I’m needing to shift some things around to give these kiddos the proper learning environment with sight words, name tags, some PreK educational books, a classroom rug with Letters and PreK centered theme, snacks for kiddos in need, cleaning materials to keep everyone healthy, rewards geared toward the specific age range I’ll be teaching and so on.

Of course, I plan to incorporate music and fun songs in my teaching because it’s my love language, but I’m also needing to expand to meet their educational needs in other ways.

Anything is appreciated, and I can’t wait to make this the best year for them and meet my little cutie pies in a couple of weeks!
