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 children (students) walk in every day eager to learn through play. I have the privilege of witnessing all of the developmental milestones of my 24 curious and resilient preschoolers. This is why I would love to provide them with the Writing Center materials urgently needed to facilitate their learning.

Studies have demonstrated that being exposed to an array of materials along with intentional teaching moments, helps bridge the educational gap for our kiddos.

My goal is to provide my children ( students) with language development opportunities to enrich their learning and self-esteem. We need Draw Learn Magnetic Studios, fine motor jars, tweezer tongs, and other materials to provide these opportunities.
