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

My students love to play in our dramatic play area. It is one of the most used areas in our classroom.

Help us update the items we have in there.

Give my students more options of things to play with. Make this area more relatable to their lives by helping us purchase things they may see around their houses.

With your help, we will be able to purchase more fake food that the kids can pretend to make. Also, currently, we do not have any pots or pans for the the kids to play cook with.
