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 PreK little ones are an amazing group of little people, always buzzing with excitement as they jump from one learning experience to the next. There’s truly nothing more rewarding than seeing their eyes light up with understanding and accomplishment.

The goal of this project is to keep our classroom clean, safe, and inviting—basically, a place where learning can thrive without being sidelined by too many germs!

Let’s face it—when you have a classroom of 4- and 5-year-olds touching everything (and I do mean everything), keeping the cooties away is a full-time job!

With these supplies, we can maintain our rigorous hand-washing, table-cleaning, and center-disinfecting protocols and keep the germs from taking over.
