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 Students

My students young and eager to explore the world around them! I teach Pre-K 3 to eighteen wonderful and creative students who spend the majority of their day learning through play! From singing songs, to building, coloring and even painting, my kids are on the move and showing their growth in the most miraculous ways.

My school is full of passionate teachers, who work diligently every day to engage and scaffold instruction and play so our students become leaders.

Through their leadership, we can have a better tomorrow!

My Project

For most of the students in my class this is their first time in a setting with other children their age and there are a lot of feelings and emotions that come with this time in their life. Sensory play is great on two different levels and can help with some of those feelings my students may be experiencing!

Sensory play has been reviewed both as calming strategy and a pathway to build nerve connections to the brain that will benefit them later on in life.

With sensory play items in place I can build an inviting yet stimulating classroom center that focus on both aspects of sensory play to help develop the full child, emotionally and academically.
