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

My Pre-K students love to learn and explore through hands-on activities. The supplies and manipulatives requested for this project will allow me to provide my students with fun and interactive science center activities.

These crayons, pencils and other materials will support my students' fine motor skills and are aligned with our Pre-K curriculum.

Your support will help to enrich our young learners' experiences, by providing access to engaging science activities that will nurture their love for STEM for many years to come. My students will be able to use the jumbo crayons to draw the things they observe using the science viewer and slides.

With these materials, we will be able to guide our students through the thinking process of science investigation and test their theories in a fun interactive developmentally appropriate way.
