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

Help me give my students a chance to use their imaginations and unlock limitless possibilities by using the needed supplies to do so . With each item will be able to have a memorable Pre-K school year in which they’ll forever remember. Creating fine motor skills, like the ability to hold a pencil or use scissors, are developed through a variety of activities that encourage hand-eye coordination and precise movements. These skills are crucial for everyday tasks and later develop into more complex skills like handwriting and other skills that are used on a daily.
