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 love resources and materials that allow students to grow socially! This is an important skill that will benefit my students throughout their lives. Studies show that when children have strong social skills, it makes it easier for them to makes friends, solve problems, and even have empathy for others. These are goals and critical skills that are needed in my class. Having this rug to provide these opportunities is a great start!

Whether they are gathering for reading/math groups, team building, fun and games, or just fun and great conversations, this rug provides many ways to create lasting memories and promote learning!
