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

The materials in this PreK project are going to create a colorful and cheerful Dual Language Polish/English PreK Classroom. The crayons and colorful spools on your yarn will help my students create art projects, seasonal decorations and classroom bulletin boards. The crayons and yarn will allow students to develop their fine motor skills through daily use in our PreK centers.

Using crayons on a daily basis can help children develop their fine motor skills.

Crayons help children develop the muscles they need to hold a pencil correctly for writing.

The colorful yarn will help our students create hands on projects, seasonal decorations and design weaving for our Tree Unit of Study. Using yarn for weaving and stringing beads helps students develop their fine motor skills for daily life tasks.
