Making Friends

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

My plan, as the class teacher, is to make activities in which children can socialize. Using Magna-Tiles helps children with their cognitive development. The sand will help them with their sensory. Lots of open-ended questions. We need to make learning fun for the children in order to succeed. My children come from low-income families and they deserve a high-quality program. I would like to provide them with successful materials that will benefit them in many ways. I also added baskets because I want to be able to provide a beautiful space for them.
