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
I am a fourth year early childhood special education teacher in a pre-school collaborative classroom. My students are young learners with various abilities. They thrive on active, hands-on, engaging activities that challenge them to think. My young scholars come to school with excitement and ready to grow both academically and personally. My students are such a joy to teach!
I am determined to challenge my students on a daily basis while making it enjoyable.
My Project
My students learn best in a structured learning environment where there are defined spaces for different activities. They sometimes need a cozy, calm place to go have a quiet time with sensory objects in order to be ready to rejoin the group. A large part of our daily curriculum involves breaking into small groups, due to the wide range of my students' abilities. When we work in small groups, it becomes very difficult to sing or move around, because of the distraction it creates for the other students in the room.
The quiet room dividers will help us create defined spaces and a calm, quiet spot with a soft mat, sensory toys, and comforting items to help our preschool students develop self-regulation skills and be ready to learn.
It will allow my teacher assistant, co-teacher, and myself the freedom to do any lesson activities we want, without the fear of disrupting the rest of the students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
