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

Arts and crafts promote academic excellence. Arts and crafts also foster critical thinking skills, concentration, and visual learning. Agility and coordination are also improved during arts and crafts exercises.

By participating in the creative pursuits of arts and crafts.

Students have the opportunity to express themselves in a meaningful and positive manner.

While enhancing self-expression, improved eye-hand coordination, and cultural appreciation.

You are investing in their physical, cognitive, and social development. They will be able to create their classroom Ocelot Snack Store by using construction paper, colors, tape, chalk, and glue gun sticks ( with adult supervision).
