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

The second semester is already here, and the year is moving along so fast. Before we know it, field day will be here, and my kindergarten crew is so excited.

My goal is to make field day epic.

I want it to be one of the most memorable experiences in the lives of my amazing learners. As my learners laugh and play with play-doh, and blow bubbles outside, I want to make sure that they have the necessary resources to laugh, play, snack (pixie sticks make everything better) and have fun! Fidget toys will make it so much fun as we wait for our next activity.
