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

Most of my students begin Universal Transition Kindergarten before they are able to or aware of how to write letters and numbers. It is up to me to expose them to both the sounds and the formation of the letters. This takes a lot of practice!

My Universal Transitional Kindergarten students have always been up to the challenge, and love learning how to write, draw and create letters, numbers and pictures.

These markers will give them the opportunity to practice doing so--over and over again! And I know my students will love practicing with a wide variety of colors.
