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

Our students LOVE the dramatic play area. In turn, it is my goal to make it a space where they can thrive! We would like to create a cozy space for them to develop their language skill and engage in social-emotional play. To do this, we are asking for a variety of materials such as cozy couches, a rug, small speakers for music, as well as a square table and chairs.

These materials will make for a wonderful, rich learning experience for our students.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Mrs. K. Donald Stewart ECC 51 Grades PreK-2
