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

Our kindergarten class is an integrated class including students with a wide variety of learning needs and styles. The children are always more engaged when they can visualize concepts and share their own learning in a visual way.

The ELMO tool is just the thing to magnify concepts, share stories, fine motor skills, create art, project learning products and tasks, engage in close reading and so much more!

We are so grateful for your assistance and know this tool will be used daily and in so many ways to create a very exciting learning environment!
