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 special education preschool teacher for all learners. My students have a range of abilities and support necessities. Our program uses the Creative Curriculum to guide our students' learning which requires accommodations and modifications appropriate for our students' needs. My students are extremely active, and their attention spans last no longer than ten to fifteen minutes per activity. My students have many needs from basic daily life skills (e.g. diapering) to exposure to age-appropriate standards-based curriculum.
My school is a Title I school that serves students who come from low-income families and all qualify for the free or reduced-price lunch program.
My students need to be highly motivated by a variety of resources to capture their attention and develop their individual strengths. My students are eager learners and come to school excited for the day. They are amazing little human beings who will become important contributors to society with the appropriate support and resources.
My Project
In my classroom I always intend to provide a safe and secure environment for my students. With donations to this project I will have the opportunity to offer a variety of snacks.
I will be able to provide snack options like goldfish, fruit snacks, pringles, and water on a daily basis.
My students are sensitive to textures so now knowing their preferences I hope to be able to give them options during snack time. There are some students who may not like the school snack and now will have choices!
Thank you for caring and investing in my students future.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
