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

The 8 cubby unit is perfect for our classroom. It is compact and the clear baskets help keep our toys organized and easily accessible for students. The students will have access to their toys during literacy, math and center time. My students have learned to be independent during center time and be able to get baskets to explore and then place them back in their places before taking on a new basket.

Having the cubby unit will help the students learn organization skills and become independent learners.

My students will learn about working together with others when they play together and when they need to clean up. The clear bins will also help my students to know exactly where to put back their toys.
