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

I absolutely love the curiosity, energy, and joy my TK students bring to the classroom every day. At this age, they are little explorers, eager to learn about the world around them through hands-on experiences and play-based learning. Their excitement for discovering new things is contagious and inspires me to create a nurturing environment that sparks their imaginations and supports their early development.

The resources requested in this project will make a meaningful difference in their learning journey.

Items like engaging books, sensory tools, and manipulatives will help build foundational literacy, math, and fine motor skills in ways that are both fun and developmentally appropriate. The use a a new rug would give all students a designated place to sit. The games/building toys I have chosen will give students an opportunity to build, imagine, create, and engineer things at their finger tips.
