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 second graders learn skills so much faster when they have the luxury of using hands on materials. Most learning clocks have hour and minute hands that work independently from one another. Using these types of clocks makes telling time so much harder to teach. The upgraded clocks from Lakeshore Learning have special hands. When you move the minute hand, the hour hand moves with the minute hand just like a real clock! Instead of me just telling students how to tell time, they will learn so much faster by using these clocks.
