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

I am excited to give my students puzzles they can use during math center time independently and some fun floor puzzles they can use during indoor recess. My students love puzzles and there are so many learning benefits in using puzzles, such as hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, memory, problem-solving, social skills, and more! My students really enjoy playing cooperatively and I think building puzzles together will also promote their self esteem!

The sensory math puzzles will be a great addition in my classroom with students completing them independently!

Thank you so much!!

Mrs. Laware
