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

The students in my kindergarten classroom are from a low socioeconomic area in a rural town in southwestern Arizona. We are located close to the border of Mexico. Some students are English language learners and children of military families. They are curious about everything around them. But many of them lack educational support away from the classroom.

My kindergarten students are eager to be 21st-century students learning with a curriculum that promotes and supports science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics.

My favorite quote is a Chinese proverb: "Do not confine our children to your own learning, for they were born in another time."

My Project

I was recently informed that if my students return to school in August they will have to be subjected to a school of social distancing requiring students to stay 6 feet apart in the classroom. CDC guidelines are shaping the way my kindergarten will look and most likely function for the new school year. I want my students to be safe in an appropriate learning environment with materials that are flexible enough to be stored away when needed to give my students ample space to move in the classroom.

Kindergarten students need to move, play, and learn in a space that is functional for them and having a flexible space that will allow them this opportunity while also social distancing is the best possible option.

Portable laptop desks take up very little space. They can be moved easily and provide a space for my kindergarten students to write, use their iPads, and do their math. We can stack the portable laptop desks away in the corner when they are not in use which will allow us to use a larger room space. These laptops desks are also easily wiped down to eliminate daily germs. It's the perfect fit for our classroom during this time of need.
