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 to play with sensory bins! They prefer playing with them instead of playing games on their iPads. The five sensory bins that I am requesting will further foster their creativity, social skills, and problem-solving abilities. Without them knowing, they're actually laying the foundation for exploration and growth. Each of the sensory bins is catered to some of their favorite subjects: plants, outer space, ice cream, building, and dinosaurs!

You can't replace these items with worksheets.

I am planning to offer them when they are done with their must do work. I currently have a couple that I bought out of my own pocket but they're not enough. They will be thrilled if they get to share it with a friend and not four others because it can get messy.
