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

Help me give my students stools to sit on and resources for our STEM interest area. In my preschool classroom I have a light table, magnetic white board, and a create a path magnetic center set up, but the students have not able to utilize everything this area has to offer because we are missing these key items!

By having these two stools in the area children are more likely to choose this area because it has flexible seating for them to learn and explore!

The students love building, so I know they will enjoy the hands on opportunity of learning their letters by building them.

I am also requesting new whiteboard erasers and cleaner because when the students use this center the magnetic white board gets very dirty when its old erasers and we want the materials looking brand new for the children.
