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 energetic and eager to learn in person at school! After several years at home during a pandemic, many students have big feelings - particularly during their first time at school. These sensory bins, kinetic sand, and play dough will help them self-regulate when those big feelings arise and teach them how to self-soothe when needed. The play dough and tactile number cards can also help students who need alternative ways to learn numbers and letters by providing tactile resources to make and identify those letters and numbers.
