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
My prekindergarten students are very curious and enthusiastic! They enter my classroom every day excited and eager to learn. They are constantly asking questions, making discoveries, and trying to make sense of the world around them.
My prekindergarten students attend a Title I school in a large urban district.
All of the students at the school qualify for the Federal Free Lunch Program. The students are predominantly Latino and the majority of them are English Language Learners. Despite their disadvantaged background, my students are enthusiastic children who enter my classroom every day ready to learn.
My Project
My students love to go to the writing center in our classroom. At the writing center, students scribble, draw pictures of their friends, and begin to explore how to write letters. They also engage in conversations with their peers and dictate sentences about their favorite part of the school day.
I am asking for journals, and pencils so my students can explore and have fun with writing.
It is so important for my young learners to have these tools so they can have an opportunity to develop their early literacy skills.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
