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

The materials in this PreK Reading Corner Carpet will provide a cozy and quiet area for our students to sit on in our class library corner. The small wipe off boards and wipe off markers will provide students with writing materials.

"You can find magic wherever you look, sit back and relax, all you need is a book." - Dr Seuss

The carpet in the project will help create a serene and peaceful library area for the students to read, create stories on our felt board, play with our puppets and write down their thoughts on our wipe off boards. The wipe off boards and markers will allow students to begin to write about what they see and read in their library books.
