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

It's crazy to believe, but the end of the schools year is quickly approaching. One of the things I love to do with my students every year is a balloon countdown until the last day. Each day a special treat is revealed.

“Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning….They have to play with what they know to be true in order to find out more, and then they can use what they learn in new forms of play.” –Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood

Outdoor recess time is such a crucial time for students to get out energy and work on their social skills through interactions with peers. Currently, my students go outside to a black top with painted activities on the cement. The recess materials are nonexistent this year due to misuse, balls on roofs and lack of budget. I am requesting items that the students will be able to not only use in school the last two weeks but can use at home over the summer such as bubbles, balls, shovels and pails, jump-ropes etc... This would be a fun way to send the year out with a bang. Last but not least, I have requested some sweet treats such as pop rocks and ring pops because a last day of school sweet treat party would be a great way to send out the year.
