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

Hand puppets make stories come to life for my students! My students absolutely love the whimsical puppets and their smiles & giggles are priceless!

In the school library, the students will be able to take turn telling the stories using these hand puppets - much to the delight of their classmates!

Hand puppets and the accompanying books will be an excellent addition to our school library. These classic stories will be read and loved by all of the early childhood classes in the school. Please help make this a reality for my students.
