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 are from lower income families. Each student has a different level of development. Students are finally back in person, and are thrilled to be back!

My wonderful preschoolers are so funny, curious, and excited to participate in play!

My Project

Stamps can provide students a different and creative way to interact and learn their alphabet. Students will have an opportunity to use the stamps during small groups. Students can learn the letters, especially those in their name. The number stamps will also be utilized in small groups, helping students recognize the numerals as well as learning about quantity.

Students will be given the opportunity to use the shape stamps to recall the names of the shapes.

The animal and transportation stamps would be used in both small groups and art centers. Students can create stories with the animals and can be used along with numbers to represent the quantity. Also gives the students an opportunity to have fun while learning!
