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 name is Alejandra Castillo-Regalado. I teach Pre-K Dual language at a title one campus. My students have so much potential and with the correct tools to develop their fine motor skills. They will be able to become great writers in the future. We would love to develop fine motor skills through play with crinkle-cut scissors, squish & squeeze sensory beads, paint brush set and more.

The materials that I am requesting will help the students with writing, using scissors, manipulating objects and getting dressed.

My goals for developing fine motor skills is acquisition. retention and transfer. Early childhood learners develop so many skills their first year of Pre-K. We are their foundation and with the correct tools they will grow into successful learners.
