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

It's my first year teaching and so lucky to have 30 wonderful Kindergartners . We are currently on distance learning due to COVID-19, but in these short weeks I have fallen in love with theses kiddos. They are punctual, excited, enthusiastic and make my day brighten up when the come into our zoom meeting everyday. I have a combined TK-K math class. I'm so impressed by how much they enjoy math and how much they already knew. I know that these kids are going places, they are so bright and smart, always answering questions and always giving it a try when I ask a question.

My Project

I picked Prized the students can earn for completing work on seesaw. I assign assignments daily and the majority of the class completed them after class. We just found out we will be in distance learning for the following quarter as well. I want to keep the kindergartners motivated to completing work assignments. I will also be send home prizes for participation based on DOJO points they earn.

We have been in distance learning for almost 3 months now and I have not been able to send these great kids a prizes for all there hard work.

They will be thrilled when I finally am able to send them something for there hard work.
