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 always looking for a fun activity to play during indoor recess. We also do different puzzles in my class, so I want to challenge them when they finish an activity to do these different puzzles. All of these games are not only fun but can also create a challenge for kids and help with their social, emotional and cognitive abilities! I can also enjoy playing with them. They love taking me in on in a game. Being a new teacher, I only have 2 games for them to play during indoor recess. Please help my class build their indoor recess activities. Thank you!
