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

Currently, my students are playing on the hard, cold ground, and I would love to provide them with a couple of carpets to comfortably play on. These carpets would be used in the science and music areas.

We have one set of magnetic blocks and it is one of the most popular toys in our classroom!

It is hard for the students to build anything when they only have a handful of blocks each. These three sets will be an amazing addition to our classroom and bring joy to all the students. I can't wait to see what they build!
