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 Kindergarteners are rays of sunshine! They are full of happy energy and ready to learn and discover new things along with their friends. They love all educational hands-on items. My students come from diverse cultural backgrounds and from middle to low socio-economic neighborhoods. My students come to kindergarten with a diverse background of knowledge and experiences. Truly, they are my inspiration! It is my job to bring out the best in every child and prepare them for the future.

My Project

My kindergarteners love learning and playing outside during recess and Physical Education, but we are very limited in playground equipment. We have the basics to teach gross motor skills but lack the equipment to further these skills along with equipment to teach eye-hand coordination skills. We have an age appropriate hoop but only one standard size basketball. The standard size and small size basketballs on my wish list will allow students to practice bouncing and tossing. The swing and catch items will allow my students to play inside the classroom during inclement weather or outside and practice their eye-hand coordination. The scarves will allow my students to practice their eye-hand coordination indoors or outdoors. My students are eager and ready to learn new things. My students are learning to be patient and take turns with equipment. They are learning to share and follow directions. I have many students who are English Language Learners. This equipment will not only aid in developing their gross motor skills, and eye-hand coordination, but will teach them more of our English language while having fun indoors or outdoors!
