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 preschool students love the dramatic play area in our classroom. It’s one of the most popular areas. Over the past school year, we have turned it into a pumpkin patch, a gingerbread house and now I would like to turn our dramatic play into a garden shop!

The dramatic play area is where children learn real life skills like how to problem solve, cooperate, share and how to problem solve.

I would like a stand to make the area look like a real garden shop with pretend fruits and vegetables.
