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 wonderful! They are the sweetest group of kindergarteners who are enthusiastic and eager to learn. They want to succeed and I want nothing more than to help them do that.

We would love to add books and board games to our classroom to enhance our learning and education.

Books will help us to improve our literacy and board games will help us learn both academic skills as well as social and emotional skills.

The board games I've selected involve both reading and counting, as well as matching and identifying various shapes and pictures. The books are a mix of classic stories and stories about kindness.
