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 TK/Kinder students just love to use markers and we desperately need more!! We use them everyday to write, color and draw. In Transitional Kindergarten we focus on developing their fine motor skills. To do this, we use what we call fine motor journals. Students will use the markers to write letters, numbers, pictures relating to our themes and writing, etc. Using markers keeps them engaged and motivated to do their work!

Young students who are developing their fine motor skills, can hold markers often easier than pencils.

My students will be so excited to get some new markers! We would greatly appreciate your generous donation!
