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
My students come from various backgrounds in Los Angeles. All are under the age of 5 years old and have been diagnosed with a qualifying disability. Each student has an individualized eduction plan which will help them in their long term school careers.
My Project
Playing and exploring with a variety of building and creative materials helps young learners encourages imagination, language development , independent learning, and positive self esteem. When children have freedom in building and construction play, it helps them to make future decisions based on what they are learning. Students enjoy building tall and wide structures. In order to keep our youngest learners self and to help them feel safe while exploring building and construction, we are requesting soft blocks versus hard wood blocks and a mirror so students will be able to watch themselves as they build and gain new perspectives on their structures.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
