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 a high-poverty area of Los Angeles. All of my students receive a free breakfast and lunch throughout the school year. Many of the families in this community have two-income households and they are still barely making ends meet.
Having a tough family life where priorities revolve around needs and not wants can make it tough for my little kinder babies to learn and grow at home.
Being safe and having food on the table is what's the most important. There isn't much time or money to take the kids out to learn and explore. That's where I come in.
One of my primary goals throughout the year is to involve parents in learning, as well. I want to "teach a man to fish." This enables parents to feel comfortable providing support in their homes and give them the tools they need. Providing opportunities at school that they can then take into their homes is crucial. Parents inherently want to help their children academically but don't always know how. Equipping them with knowledge and tools is key. I hope you support us.
My Project
During these trying times, no sharing is allowed. Sharing was a staple of preschool before our current pandemic hit. In order to keep all of our students and staff healthy and safe it is ideal to have children have their own set of materials. I would like to make their school year a positive experience by using a lot of color and decor that will make the classroom inviting. I would like to personalize all of their items and places in my classroom so that students can be aware of all the safe places in the room and their personal items.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
