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

In our kindergarten classroom, we’re building a hands-on, engaging environment where young learners can thrive. To support this, we need essential classroom supplies: laminating sheets, Play-Doh, headphones, primary journals, mini whiteboards, and dry-erase dots.

Laminating sheets will help preserve reusable learning materials, while Play-Doh encourages creativity and fine motor development.

Headphones are key for focused learning during digital literacy centers. Primary journals will support early writing and drawing skills, and whiteboards with erase dots will allow for interactive lessons and quick practice in reading and math.

These materials will help create a fun, functional space where every child has the tools they need to succeed!
