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

Our students are a diverse group of 3 to 4-year-olds who come from different backgrounds. They are excited to learn, explore, and express themselves in their unique ways.

With a mix of hands-on activities and pretend play, we encourage them to develop fine motor skills, build friendships, and start learning the basics of self-expression and problem-solving.

We are seeking pretend play costumes to boost their imagination skills and social skills. Art supply such as markers and playdough toys will help them with fine motor skills and allow them to bring their idea to life. Thank you for providing these materials for my classroom and my students.
