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

Opportunities to imagine, excite, discover, and explore keep our little learners engaged and curious. My goals for our learners, is to entice and motivate them to do what they do best; learn.

Talk about motivating!

Cool Scoops Ice Creamery will give my children a chance to make pretend, share, and communicate with each other. The Wooden ABC and Numbers puzzle will familiarize my learners with letters and numbers.

Talk about engaging! I chose Water Wow! because it is a hands-on play experience that give kids another engaging option for screen-free entertainment. Apply water to the page and an image appears!

How exciting! I chose GO Tots Wooden Barnyard Tumble because it entices learners to roll, stack, and grasp 4 double-sided wooden GO Tots friends and make them tumble, twirl in the wooden double-sided barn with built-in carrying handle! It's MY turn!
