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

Montessori materials are hands-on learning tools that are designed to provide children with opportunities to discover key learning outcomes through repetition and practice. Each material teaches one skill at a time and is intentionally designed to support independent learning and problem-solving skills. These materials teach independence, critical thinking, and are quite durable. Most importantly, they are engaging and FUN! My students would benefit greatly from these additions to our classrooms. My little learners will definitely enjoy playing with these new materials without even knowing that they are learning new literacy skills!
