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

Welcome to PreK! This project is all about preparing my new classroom for our PreK little learners for the 2025 school year. The items in the project are materials that would be used for classroom management and daily learning experiences. They include a dollhouse, dramatic play toys , play figurines .

We are a Prek special needs class with English language learning , with a lot of energy.These materials will help regulate the high sensory needs of our little ones and will help us the teachers be successful in creating a more effective classroom for students.

Creating an effective classroom for students will allow them to feel more comfortable for students as they start for the first time.
