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

This year I wanted to get my District 75 students more exposed to playing interactive games in the classroom. I also utilize puzzles to teach students to learn and identify a variety of objects while working on their fine motor skills.

With support and correct modeling, playing with these games and puzzles can create many opportunities to teach a variety of social, fine motor and education skills.

The remaining items help me keep the classroom clean, organized, creative and able to meet the needs of my students for the upcoming school year.
