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

Do you remember being in school and completing an assignment thinking to yourself, "This is so boring". Well my goal is to make my kinder kiddos' learning experiences as memorable and positive as possible. That is why I need your help to get these materials. The materials in this project will foster a love for learning. The bins will be used to replace the classroom library bins that are already in desperate need of repair. In addition, the ABC pop-its and dice will allow students to engage in hands-on activities with their weekly sight words in an organized manner (using the pouches as storage). Overall, students will be able to learn and have fun doing it!
