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

I have requested a light table because it will help my students in many ways. They will be able to explore different subjects such as literacy, math, science and art. It will also help them explore their imagination and cooperative learning. For the manipulative they will be able to master their goal of sorting and letter identification. They will be using learning through play. With these items my students will be motivated and engaged in the learning process. Students learn best by using visuals which will help them be successful.
