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 students are young learners. I am so excited for them. They're newbies here on Planet Earth! How lucky am I? I get to be one of the first to show them around!

The bright color and soft texture of play dough attracts the children.

As they gather around the play dough table, they practice using verbal skills. We can hear...Can I have some? It's my turn! I made a pizza. Wow that's some spicy pizza! Can I have half? Please be patient and wait. In addition, the toys that I have chosen will help children learn advanced language such as texture, imprint, and force.
