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 come from a variety of backgrounds, and they are all fun and unique individuals whom I love welcoming every day. We are an inclusive classroom, which means we have learners at a variety of skill levels. Your donations will help with providing materials to help them with those different skills.

These items will help my students meet their learning goals in the areas of social emotional development, gross and fine motor skills, literacy, sorting, and mathematics, all while having a wonderful time learning through play!

The obstacle course I am requesting will be used to encourage the development of active gross motor skills in students. It will also encourage creative dramatic play. The Wikki Stix will develop fine motor skills as they are used for art and also for letter building and math practice. The children will use the alphabet stampers in our playdough center to practice their fine motor and literacy skills. They will also use the market set in dramatic play for shopping and cooking, but will also be building vocabulary as they learn about the different fruits and vegetables as well as color names. The Little Spots of Emotion set will be used for all of us to explore and explain the emotions that we are feeling.

Thank you so much for considering us!
