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

In our PreK Head Start class, we work daily on fine motor skills. This writing and creating station will be a place where our children can create and experiment with materials to expand their fine motor skills. This writing center and standing desk will be where they can practice pre-writing skills and they can learn through manipulating materials such as scissors and hands-on writing We are requesting materials like crayons, markers, and stencils to practice and expand their knowledge of writing. They can experiment with markers and crayons and crafting materials to learn to form pictures, shapes, and letters as well as how to form simple words. The space will be added to our Art Area where creativity can be expanded!
