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

Our class will have manipulative to enhance their school readiness skills in a small group setting to help with concepts and understanding. Children will develop a deeper understanding using hands-on materials to enrich their learning. We will discover different ways to work together in a small group setting so every child can grow and explore their skills. We will work on language skills and help with language development which is an area of need in my class where the ages of the students are 3-5 and have developmental delays
