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

This grocery store dramatic play area will be a place for preschoolers to learn to share, and engage in conversations while learning through play. Preschoolers will get to interact with pretend food and engage in pretend store play, by being able to touch, sort, and manipulate pretend store play with an area to learn through play. Preschoolers can interact with their classmates as they enjoy playing with the fruit and vegetable stand. Students will use early mathematical skills that are used in everyday real-life shopping in grocery stores and popular stores such as Target.
