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 the opportunity to go outside and play for recess, but sometimes the weather doesn't allow this. These materials will allow my students to have extra playing opportunities outside that encourage their creativity with the sidewalk chalk. The jump ropes, catch and stick, and kickball all give students the chance to play with their friends in an organized game. However, when students can't go outside they will be so excited to engage in new games such as Candy Land and Chutes and Ladders. This will help students with teamwork and cooperation. They will also LOVE the chance to explore in STEM activities with Legos, Magnatiles, and the connecting blocks. The bins will help keep everything organized so we can use the materials for a long time!
