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

All children love to play games. Many important life lessons come from playing games. Students can be taught how to take turns, follow the rules, problem-solve, and control their big feelings when winning or losing a game. In my class, everyone loves to win and but they sure hate to lose.

These games will help children regulate their emotions and improve their social skills.

These games will also invite children to communicate with one another in a small group setting. Students will be able to practice speaking with one another in complete sentences.
