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 TK students are eager to learn! Learning for children at this age is best done through hands-on, purposeful play. It is a discovery stage where students are learning through exploration. It is for this reason the hands-on learning materials I have requested are age-appropriate and will encourage students to learn through play. I love seeing the smiles on my students' faces while they purposeful play. Please help me give my students these language arts and math activities. They will be able to put letters in alphabetical order and numbers in numerical order.
