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

Just like all children, my kindergartners LOVE learning through play. Your donation will help support purchasing magna tiles for my classroom. The students will have the opportunity to use their imagination to create. They love building with Magna-Tiles but unfortunately, we don't have enough for them to support their big ideas.

These are great tools to teach students to work together and build endless creations.

My students are learning how to build and foster relationships with each other. Connecting with each other through play is developmentally appropriate at this age.
