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

Please help give my young enthusiastic learners magnetic tiles to help them build self-confidence and expand on their creativity. The magnetic tiles will be easy and fun for them to build different models. They will learn the colors, shapes and motor skills and creatively think while they are building their own designs.

In addition, the pattern block math games will help them read and recognize basic numbers as well as counting while creating the number with the pattern blocks.

This resource will help my young learners have a better understanding of number sense.

The bins for storage with lids will help the students stay on task and be organized. The bins with labels will give my young learners easy access to the manipulative and tools they need for their learning in class.
