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

Carpets establishes a dedicated play area such as circle time, story time while guiding the classroom flow and movement. Carpets help classrooms stay clean and organized, and soften the loud sounds and hard surfaces in a classroom. The play house, foods, and other play materials provides a setting for role play. It also allows students to make senses of their immediate world. The students will have ample opportunities to work together, express their feelings, and use language to communicate roles. These materials in the play area supports creativity and self expressions.
