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

We love to learn our letters and numbers in pre-k through play. With these new letters and numbers activity centers, the students will have a greater variety of ways to enhance their letter and number learning as they get ready to read and count.

In preschool, we reinforce letter recognition and numbers knowledge throughout the day with a variety of hands-on manipulatives.

Please help us give our class some of these materials so that we can continue to develop these crucial prereading and premath skills. My goal is to send my little learners to kindergarten with a solid foundation in alphabetic and number knowledge.
