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

My students are incredibly special in so many ways, They are each unique but when they come together they create an amazing preschool class. Our class is a Preschool Disabled Class and each of my students has a learning disability or delay. They all come from different cultural backgrounds and socioeconomical status as well.

A chair of the proper size and height is a crucial tool in the classroom.

It is so important for children to have properly sized tables and chairs. Not only does it make them more comfortable but it allows them to be more successful. Being able to properly reach the top of the table whether eating lunch or doing academic activities makes all the difference in the world.
