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

I teach in an ETK (Expanded Transitional Kindergarten) Preschool program which is a full-day program for 24 students. My enthusiastic PreK learners come to school ready to learn, build language, and explore. It is a program that introduces preschool age students (ages 4-5) to a public school setting. I teach at a Title I school in a small suburb outside of a major city. The majority of my students are Hispanic, and many come from low income families.

Most of my students either have not attended any preschool program or only attended a 2-3 hour a day program.

The ETK program allows parents who work to have a quality preschool program for six hours each day with a credentialed teacher. We offer free breakfast and lunch to all students. Many students have siblings at our school so it makes it easy for parents to drop off and pick up children.

My Project

Pictures offer many options for learning in the classroom. Photography is an exciting way to support the development of children’s social and emotional skills and stimulate their creativity. Children show their learning through the projects they create. Being able to take pictures of children and print them out to display in the classroom will provide children a sense of belonging. Photographs can also provide my students with the visuals they need to guide their cognitive and language development. Having students document their activities allows them to be engaged in learning. I would love to give my students lasting memories of their first school experience.

Having a portable printer will help students capture memories, make photo art projects, and create portfolios for each child.
