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

I am requesting these materials to give my students the ultimate butterfly experience. Every spring we get the experience watching first hand our butterflies grow and then we release them! While our butterflies are with us in the classroom I am requesting these materials so students can learn about the life cycle, play butterfly games to build their social skills, and use butterfly counters to explore math concepts! With these butterfly wiggle cushions my squirmy rug sitters with be able to relax and focus on the lesson at hand and inclusive classroom.
