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

School supplies play an incredibly important role in learning. As a teacher I see that I have some students that need to develop their fine motor skills as they are more engaged when they use paper, laces, masking tape and painting.

When it comes to the development of fine motor skills, most of children's development will occur naturally as they learn and play.

By providing this materials in my list, my students will manipulate and grasp materials and tools that will help them improve these skills by choosing, paint, paper, lacing colored tape that support fine motor skill development.
