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

These learning manipulatives will make a huge difference in my Kindergarten classroom. My students always gravitate towards the fun learning activities in the room. These will allow them to be engaged while they are independently learning at stations. Having fun while learning tends to have more of an impact than normal practice activities. These playful activities will help students review letters, sounds, numbers, and counting!

New cozy beanbags will help my students enjoy our classroom library more!

They will be nice and comfy while snuggling up with a fun book.
