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

Greetings! Universal Transitional Kindergarten is an extraordinary place indeed! I consider myself fortunate to spend my days witnessing my young learners explore and develop many skills. With your generous support, we can introduce these amazing block center items to my young learners, turning our space into a hub of exploration and hands-on learning.

Children can learn about cause and effect by moving things up and down on an elevator, sliding blocks on a conveyor belt, and more.

Students will understand how big machines make tough tasks easier, all while fostering learning with curiosity and excitement about engineering. Additionally, the "Around Town" rug will serve as an asset for students to observe various buildings and infrastructures, sparking wonder about engineering.
