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

Students love any type of things that light up, play music, and let them show off their independence.

Every child is capable of answering questions on their own and making their own choices!

We need more switches in our room to allow this to happen. We record things on the switches and then give the students choices to pick from.

The toys that light up and move around the room make them giggle and smile the best smiles when they realize they can turn them on and make them light up and play music on their own!
