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

Fact 1: Early Education research states sand and water play supports the understanding of abstract math and science concepts in young children.

Fact 2: For more of our school days we are experiencing sweltering heat.

Outdoor STEM and STEAM activities provide opportunities for the former and solutions to the latter.

These outdoor sensory sand toys, water toys, fence weaving ribbons, paint easels and supplies provide hours of engagement at low physical intensity even on the hottest days. Students enjoy the outdoors safely in meaningful activities that foster curiosity and creativity.
