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 Students

My students come from a struggling, high needs, urban neighborhood in New York City. Our school is a warm, nurturing environment, and the children enjoy coming to school. I am currently teaching 18 lovable preschoolers who are curious, funny, loving, and eager to learn. The parents of our students are working hard to make a better life for their families and desire a stellar education for their children.

My little ones are curious, imaginative, loving, creative, honest, and cute.

The community is diverse and considerably lower income. The children I teach are all eager to learn and are enthusiastic. My classroom is comprised of children who are learning English and also with children who have different abilities.

My Project

I am requesting 18 copies of a Scholastic magazine entitled "Clifford The Big Red Dog" for my PreK students. Scholastic magazine is a friendly periodical that captures children's interest and sparks their imagination. One of my goals each year is to have the children speak in class and express themselves. The children will orally discuss the news each week in class after discussing it at home, and this will give us the opportunity to work on language development. For example, if we have read about pumpkins, they can retell what they have learned and discuss all the different things that can be done with pumpkins. We can make pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pudding, we can paint pumpkins and turn them into jack-o'-lanterns by carving a face. Each week, the children will receive a colorful magazine that will teach many themes. For example, in the Fall issue they will learn about fire safety and all about the season of Autumn. The children will feel so proud to bring home their magazines each week.

My students need these magazines to help build reading skills and to learn about the society they live in as well as different cultures around the world.

This magazine will inspire and motivate my students. These particular magazines are designed for young children and will teach across all curriculum areas especially science and social studies. By using these periodicals, my young learners will be on their way to becoming better educated and will learn to care about the world in which they live.

Scholastic magazine teaches children current events, science, holidays, and other pertinent subjects. It is never too early to start children reading and learning. Thank You for reading my proposal.
