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

A daily routine has helped our preschoolers excel academically. They enjoy dancing and playing while learning from each other. Allowing them time to explore and communicate with one another during small groups and outdoor play has significantly impacted their milestone development.

Our outdoor giant flower chalkboards will allow our students to have fun and be creative while learning with their classmates.

These giant flower chalkboards will also help develop their writing skills while enhancing their social and emotional skills during outdoor recess.

Our goal is to encourage and provide our preschoolers with the opportunities they need to discover and learn while being outdoors during recess time.
