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.
Pre-K is one of the most important grades in a student's school career. More important than learning their basic letters and numbers, they learn to share and use materials and how to behave. The most important thing they learn is what I like to call "how to school." Instilling a love for school is my ultimate goal.
To qualify for Pre-K, my students need to be either low income or English language learners.
Most of my students are both. My class is diverse in race, ethnicity, and religion, with students who are Ethiopian, Hindi, Hispanic, and more. We are a special group, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The students learn love and tolerance, respect and responsibility, fun and work.
My Project
We need paint for our art center and projects. My students are creative and love to explore with different art supplies. We paint letters, numbers, butterfly life cycles, community helpers, and whatever we are learning about!
Through art and painting, we build vocabulary, create projects, become more creative and proud of our work and learning.
Painting helps anxious students relax, distracted students focus, and gives shy students confidence. It stimulates interest in whatever we are learning. The art center is one of the most important centers in my classroom, and without paint, students are limited in what they can do.
