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

Where do I start? When asked why I love my students, I must simply say that it's because they are amazing little humans. My goal is to help them establish the foundational skills needed for the rest of their school years.

What better way to than through play.The tools I am requesting can help my students recognize, identify, and match their number and letters.

Furthermore, not only will they be working on their academics but on their fine motor skills. Each tool will be used as part of small groups and/or center time. I want to incorporate learning through play with my students because I know it will help them succeed.

Please, help me build centers/small group activities that will be fun and engaging.
