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

There a multiple items in our project. There are many items that will provide students equipment for outdoor play. We currently do not have materials to help provide students with active and engaging play. Also in our project are materials for sensory time. My students benefit from time in engaging in sensory play. This helps them regulate as well as explore the world around them. Lastly, I have a couple of technology items speakers for my computer for the school day and student headphones when they use their iPads. All these material will help students throughout their school day to engage in lessons and provide a fun and active environment.
