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

Many of my students were not able to go to preschool. The trains and the sand toys will enable them to develop their social and emotional skills. The paints will help me to teach my students how to mix colors to make other colors- so exciting for kindergarteners. The dabbers will help students look in letter, sight word and number searches.

Learning through play is the most engaging way my students learn.

The baskets will help me to organize their reading books for guided reading. The pumpkin stickers are for when we have our kindergarten pumpkin patch to help them decorate it.
