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 Students

My students are from low social-economic backgrounds, English as a second language learners, and multi-generational families. They are also usually included in the free and reduced-rate lunches program.

Each student that comes through my classroom doors is always so eager to learn.

School is their safe place and where they love to be.

They come each day with a smile and want to be here till they go home.

My Project

Students love to show their creativity and in order to show that creativity they need fine motor skills. Each year we see more and more students with fine motor deficits. Their finger muscles have not fully developed.

The materials I have asked for can all be used to develop stronger fingers to do such activities as holding a pencil to write with and to draw with, using their pincer grasp to pick up materials such as pennies, buttons, beads, and more, and to create an art project, and much more.
