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 Students

Our students our one of a kind! They range from 3-5 years old and with disabilities ranging from autism to down syndrome and anything in between. The majority of my students get occupational and physical therapy in the school setting, but being that we are starting the school Year virtually this year, they will need lots of extra practice at home working on their fine motor skills.

My Project

One of the most fun and exciting parts of preschool is all the art projects we get to

Incorporate with our lessons.

We will be able to make letter collages with the foam stickers, feathers, Pom poms and goggly eyes. We can also use the art supplies for math with sorting and patterning. The sorting trays will help keep our supplies organized and easily to access. The trays and containers will make for an easy clean up and will help us keep all our materials together. Our classroom will be beautifully decorated with all the creative and unique artwork we will create!
