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

This September, my preschoolers will be heading out to explore and learn the world around them. Gears, Gears, Gears, Magnetic Tiles, Puppets and Parachutes will help my students participate and excel in the preschool curriculum while learning through STEM. Using multicultural foods and puppets for the dramatic play center, students will be able to learn about different cultures in their community and share their personal experiences with friends. My preschoolers come from a low income area where many students are not exposed to different resources to help them learn. This project will help my students to experience new ways of learning while enhancing gross motor skills through ideas of STEM.
