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

Preschool is an age of curiosity and excitement for all things. Preschoolers love to physically interact with materials and explore the different ways objects function and can be put together. They are not afraid to try new things and come up with out of the box ideas.

We love to provide them with a variety of materials in the different centers (science table, sensory bin, light table, block area) that encourage them to expand on their ideas and build on their interests to help build a lifetime love of learning.

We are requesting magnetic tiles, a polar animal sensory bin kit, and a rocks & fossils kit.
