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

I love that my students are always creative and want to continue learning at every possible second. During center time, students use their imagination, fine motor skills, and different learning strategies through play. My students are always being creative with what they have in the classroom. These materials will make a difference in their learning because it is more material they can use, manipulate, and turn it into another learning opportunity.

With these items/materials, my students will be able to use problem solving skills, practice real life skills, and have an amazing time with new workshop manipulative.
