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

Hands-on learning with manipulatives in preschool is crucial for developing foundational skills in areas like math, literacy, and fine motor skills. These learning tools engage children's senses, making learning more concrete and engaging. Manipulatives also foster problem-solving, creativity, and social-emotional growth.

While playing children can learn many skills.

Promoting creativity and imagination helps children engage in the areas of study through the school year. Manipulative play can be done individually or collaboratively, encouraging children to share, cooperate, and negotiate. This can help them develop social skills and learn to work together.

Help us give our Preschoolers more hands-on toys for the classroom.
