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 Project

Hello! I am new to teaching kindergarten in East Boston, MA. This was my first year, and we were short on many materials students needed to have had a more robust learning experience (such as books on subjects we learn about and dramatic play materials for students to explore our biggest learning topics: community, animals, construction, and the Earth).

Next year, I hope that children will have a fully stocked classroom library and many materials that they can utilize for hands-on and self-guided learning experiences.

Thank you so much for your support.

Mr. G.
Grades PreK-2
