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

PreK is such a magical time, and I have the most amazing group of students in my class! They are finding their personalities and becoming independent, self-directed learners who learn the best when they are up and moving throughout the day. They enjoy multiple opportunities to learn new subjects in creative and exciting ways!

Our school is located in a high-need community where families do not have the ability to provide their children with the basic supplies or innovative materials we use each day to keep learning engaging and fun!

My classroom is filled with energetic learners who come to school each and every day ready to learn! We have a play-based​ inclusive classroom and curriculum, where all learners are supported!

My Project

In our play based classroom we are learning through hands on experiences. My students love to explore new materials and have a particular interest in the arts. These supplies would enable my students to work with watercolor, tempera, markers and more as they discover their artistic interests.

By providing a rich variety of art supplies, my young students are developing mentally, socially and emotionally.

They are developing fine motor skills, problem solving and creating a strong foundation in both math and science.

In our classroom we talk a lot about the process of art and what we are making, though the final product is 100% student created! We support our students through the art making process, but allow them to explore the materials independently.

Our students love creating and they feel accomplished and confident when they finish a new painting. These supplies will provide our classroom with countless opportunities to support their continued growth!
