Celebrating 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
Dramatic play creates a world of endless opportunities for students through problem solving, critical thinking, language rich conversations, and an authentic development of life skills.
Play engages students in activities that also helps to develop fine and gross motor skills.
It is my hope that through this project I am able to nurture and foster opportunities for students to actively experiment with the social emotional roles of life and to develop strong interpersonal skills and meaningful connections. Incorporating a grocery store into our learning community will strengthen our practices and communication.
