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 class is so excited by playing imaginatively and getting creative. This project will give us some new tools to let our creative brains thrive. As it stands we do not have a thriving cooperative play and arts center during cooperative play. In order to give students more time to let this part of them shine I will need your help.

Help us to get some costumes and drawing tools to let our right brain be as creative and imaginative as possible.

The costumes I chose represent some career choices to reflect our community helper unit such as the vet, scientist, and nurse. The tools such as markers, crayons, and sentence strips will help get us in a visually creative space. With these tools I feel our classroom will be filled with joy and imagination.
