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 class is full of 17 excited, eager, and energetic kindergartners each day. I have 9 girls and 8 boys. Out of my 17 students, I have 3 students with disabilities and 3 English Language Learners. All my students come to me each morning with big bright eyes ready to start the day. Unfortunately, because our school has a number high of low income families, many students don’t have the necessary supplies. Also my students with disabilities and my English Language Learners need special attention so that they leave the day learning the same concepts as the rest of the class. This may not sound like a big deal, but it is especially when the 17 students are all 5 years old and full of energy.
Since many of my students are just starting schooling for the first time ever, there are many simple things that many people might believe that the students should already come to school knowing, but unfortunately don't.
They must be taught and I’m the one to help them begin their journey. It is my goal to help prepare them for first grade and instill a love for learning throughout each day.
My Project
These materials will help my students learn to love learning at an early age. For many of my students this will be the first time they will see these "toys". Many of the items or toys will be utilized in small groups. All items will help students being to understand concepts within Math, Science, Language, and eventually Reading. It may look like my students will only be playing, but in reality they will be learning. The best part is that they won't even realize it. This is really the best way for learning to happen and I can't wait to help them unlock their love for learning all different types of topics and subjects.
