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

We have a mixed class of Prek 3 and Prek 4. We would like to add more fun activities in our lessons, such as: crafts, games to strengthen concentration and manipulatives to develop creativity and imagination among many other advantages that we would like to have in our class. Help me give my students a fun and interactive learning environment with folders, paper, play doh, markers, pens, tape and stickers.

This is our students' first school experience, and we are very excited by the love they have taken for school at their young age.

We love working on projects where each of them has the opportunity to create and share with themselves, family and teachers.
