What's Your Superpower? My Five Senses of Course!

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

This class is a group of happy, energetic and enthusiastic learners that love to learn and explore the world around them! Discovering new things beyond what our lessons are about, is what inspired me to help provide experiences in which they can utilize their inner super powers-their FIVE SENSES. Having an indoor sand/water table and sensory bins can enable a hands-on approach towards their learning. By using their five senses, the children will get to see, touch, hear, taste and smell everyday objects/materials that will help them to discover and understand their environment.

This will be a great opportunity to go beyond sand and water, where the children can have experiences with soil, whipped cream, moss, marbles, the list is endless.

I can't wait to see the children unleash their inner super powers!
