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

I work as a kindergarten teacher at a great Title One school in NYC. We work so hard each year to learn about math and reading and the world around us, while also playing together and getting along.

This year, I would like to help our kids stretch their thinking and building with new math manipulatives, Lego and dollhouse fun!

Our math tools will help us learn about and describe the attributes of 2-D and 3-D shapes, while also allowing us to explore how different shapes can be combined to make new shapes. Lego acts as a real-world extension of this knowledge while also helping to build their fine-motor skills as they snap the pieces together and create play scenes with each other. Playing dollhouse fosters imagination and creativity, too. It is also an extension of what we learn about when studying shapes. It gives students the opportunity to create stories while also learning organizational and classification skills.

Would you be willing to help us? Knowledge is key to growing and learning, and playing is a well-established part of the process. Thank you for helping us play, learn and grow this year!
