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 little ones love to run around and explore every center available to them. These supplies will make each center more attractive, allowing the children to engage fully with their environment.

For my students with special needs, these materials are particularly vital as they provide sensory experiences and opportunities for hands-on learning that meet their unique developmental needs.

With these resources, they can use their imagination to create projects, interact with peers, and build critical skills especially during our light unit.

These materials will help me create a classroom where all my students can grow and succeed, no matter their abilities.
