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 are wonderful eager young learners. They are 2-3 years old and are drawn to learning when they create arts and crafts projects. They are motivated to learn when they enter a beautiful classroom and dramatic play center.

Having a Cricut will help create and continuously beautify our classroom with ease that promotes literacy.

The creative curriculum requires to change up the units every 5-6 weeks. So having a Cricut to create arts/crafts will enhance and motivate student engagement and learning.

My goal for this project is to be able to change my classroom environment along with the units in the best possible way. Trying to do this by scrambling in search of materials or purchasing materials is a challenge. Having a Cricut will make this easier and will benefit young learners for years to come! Thank you!
