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

Construction play teaches children to problem-solve, connect socially, understand, and be inquisitive in their play.

They learn about the attributes of different materials, engage their curiosity and imagination, and experiment with applying concepts and exploring new ways to use physical materials.

The pipe builders will be used in Dramatic Play to build structures from the imaginations of students. They may build a house, a hospital, as well as a school. The possibilities are endless. The other items will enhance this open-ended play by providing different sizes and other construction purposes.
