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 come from a variety of backgrounds and socioeconomic levels. Most of my students are bilingual learners and I serve ECSE and prek students in a low income Title 1 school.

I am finding that I need some cause and effect toys for students who are functioning at a different developmental level, to help them with engagement and requesting.

This is an immediate need, as the materials that I currently have don't seem to be engaging enough for some of my younger students. I also would love to grow my library by adding a book and craft for Valentine's day to help them learn to request, share, and communicate. Thank you!
