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 a great bunch of kids and they love to work collaboratively and solve problems together but sometimes they struggle with how to do this. These puzzles and games will be used on a daily basis to help my students develop their social emotional skills while also helping them to become successful problems solvers.

Puzzles are a fantastic way to develop problem solving skills, work collaboratively and keep them engaged.

We will use these puzzles and games during recess, as a reward and for our early finishers. These puzzles will have a huge impact on my students social emotional skills while also building their math skills.
