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 students are in need of basic school supplies such as pencils, play-dough, paper and much more. By providing these basic supplies my students can have the artistic freedom needed to create unique work. They will work on their muscle development and fine motor skills while using play-dough and pencils. Paper is vital in any classroom. We use paper to share our thoughts, emotions, and make connections to our stories. We use chart paper to create web charts, anchor charts, graphs and nursery rhymes. We are promoting literacy, creativity and language.
