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 are curious and entertaining.

They love to do puzzles and play chess.

They will enjoy these floor puzzles and 3D puzzles after our state testing is over.

Puzzles improve their skills in math.it increases patience and teamwork.

It also builds perseverance which is an important skill in life.

There 3D puzzles will give them an opportunity to build real life objects in minature forms.

I have some very analytical students and they like the games with strategy/patience.

Chess will be ideal for them and they will be deeply engaged.

Resting mat will be used as needed.
