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

PreK is such a magical time, and I have the most amazing group of students in my class! They are finding their personalities and becoming independent, self-directed learners who learn the best when they are up and moving throughout the day. They enjoy multiple opportunities to learn new subjects in creative and exciting ways!

Our school is located in a high-need community where families do not have the ability to provide their children with the basic supplies or innovative materials we use each day to keep learning engaging and fun!

My classroom is filled with energetic learners who come to school each and every day ready to learn! We have a play-based​ inclusive classroom and curriculum, where all learners are supported!

My Project

My current class helped me look for books and materials to build our classroom library. They wanted to be able to “see” themselves represented in our classroom library and wanted the space to be interactive! They have chosen to build a new big book library to use in class each day.

This project will enable us to bring many beloved stories to life using big books, whiteboards and felt stories.

We read each and every day and need books that speak to our social-emotional​, cultural and personal needs. These books will help us do just that, and help every student build a strong foundation and love of reading!
