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 Project

I have 18 preschool students with different degree of learning. Four of my students have a learning disability that causes a barrier to their learning about the world around them. This bright bulletin board paper will give these students the opportunity to look at their environment with accuracy and meaning.

The students with learning disability will be able to understand the environment in color and with the laminating machine, it will help the children in saving their project for longer period of time.

This will help them in reflecting back on their learning and help them use it as resources.
