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

The students in my class are curious, energetic, and imaginative Kindergartners. They love coming to school and being part of a learning family. Most of the students in my class are low-income and English is their second language. Having Magna Tiles Sets will give all my students the opportunity and skills to become future engineers.

Every 5-year-old needs time to play, time to create, and time to learn.

Having a variety of Magna Tiles Sets will allow all students the ability to do just that! Allowing time for the students to use their imagination to build is imperative. During hands-on play, the students have to problem solve and use academic language that explains what they are doing. They will collaborate and role-play with their peers. These are real-life skills that all students need for the 21st century.
