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 students love to play games and love hands-on learning. My students are also very passionate about problem solving. These materials will provide student enrichment and support in their social and emotional learning. Many games and technology platforms encourage collaborative problem-solving. Students can work together, share ideas, and learn from each other, fostering social skills and cooperative problem-solving abilities. Games and technology provide an enriching and dynamic and interactive platform for students to develop problem-solving skills. They create an environment that is not only effective for learning but also enjoyable, fostering a positive attitude toward tackling challenges and solving problems in various contexts.
