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 have 30 special education Pre-K students. These are some of the greatest and most courageous students. They attend school in one of the highest poverty districts in the state. Yet, with multiple disabilities and adversities, that does not dissuade them in any way in learning.
They know their teachers care, but we lack the full resources to teach them to their fullest extent.
My students are just beginning life. They deserve a break too. Will you please help them? Thanks! We all really appreciate your support.
My Project
Writing is the most basic form of communication. It is also a dying art. With so many students now on their tablets, phones, and other electronic devices, writing has become an after-thought. Let's change that now! Writing at this level is so important. Here is why: helping expose pre-k students in learning to write their letters, names, numbers, etc., has so many advantages: this skill helps increase awareness of language and literacy in the classroom environment and in the child's world. Writing gives children opportunities to explore the written word, and practice writing their letters and names without frustration -- they can work at their own pace. In addition, it helps develop small muscle skills and eye-hand coordination. Finally, exposure to writing helps prepare children for the transition and expectations in Kindergarten.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
