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 Students

My students are in a blended VPK/Pre-K special education classroom. They are adorable kids, ages 3-5, and they are eager to learn. They love storytime and learning through play.

Our kindergarten students usually start school already behind their non-economically disadvantaged peers.

About 60% of our incoming students are also learning to speak English. The goal of our Pre-K special needs program is to give our students the early intervention services they need so they can be in the least restrictive environment when they go to kindergarten with a goal of participating in regular education classes.

Our Pre-K students are identified with developmental delays, speech and language delays, Down syndrome, autism, and have cerebral palsy. The majority of them are just learning to talk, and some are learning to walk with assistance. My students need hands-on learning materials to help them learn readiness skills through play.

My Project

This year, my class has many unique needs. The majority of my students are learning English as a second language. All of my students are from low-income homes. Half of my students are identified with a disability such as autism, speech/language delays and developmental delays.

My students need learning toys that are on their developmental level as they start to learn and explore.

The toys I chose reinforce pre-readiness skills in English which will help my non-verbal students and English language learners.

Some of the learning toys will be used for my students at home to reinforce skills they are having difficulty with.
