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 in a blended classroom that consists of a diverse crowd of special needs students, English language learners and students from the general education population.
My students range in ages from three to five years old.
As a Special Education teacher, I serve a diverse crowd of students with special needs. The students I serve are mostly African-American and Hispanic. My students come from low socioeconomic circumstances. The parents and community try their best to support these students. These students inspire me to be a better teacher and person and I learn from them daily. The uniqueness each of my students brings to the class is unimaginable.
My Project
One of the most important activities we do in our classroom daily is small groups.
In the small groups the students work on a variety of skills such as fine-motor skills, math skills, literacy skills, and science skills.
My students take great enjoyment in and are now starting to feel more confident with knowing their colors, shapes, letters, and numbers thanks to our small group activities. Within our preschool curriculum, we have many different units. We just finished our "Farm Unit" and "Tree Unit" and now we are starting on our "Clothing Unit." This is the perfect unit to do file folder activities with considering we are also talking about the seasons changing and the different clothes that we need to wear!
I have found cute clothing bingo's, clothing patterning as well as many other fun, hands-on activities for the clothing unit.
The students are allowed to take these file folder activities home with them to work on them with their families! That is why I am requesting a variety of card stock and laminating sheets to make these take-home activities durable, reusable and easy to clean!
