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 that I have added to my cart will enhance each of my centers. I added art materials so that my students can express themselves through art. I also added materials for my dramatic play area so that my students can role play real life Scenarios. I’ve included some storage bins and furniture to better organize the supplies in my class so my students have easy access to all materials. I hope to create a more tactile classroom using these materials so that my students can learn through play.
