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 tiny, beautiful humans that love to sing, dance and explore! They have eager minds and are open to learning new and exciting things. They love to learn through play and hands-on experiments, and they are full of energy!

At the beginning of the year, some of my students are only 3 years old!

They come to my school as tiny seeds, and then as the year progresses, we see them bloom into extraordinary flowers! I love my job!

My Project

My little learners are all about the "hands-on" experience. They love to get their hands dirty and to learn through play. They love using putty to create new friends and shapes. We love learning about magnets, and how they work. They really love using magnets and experimenting with them!

My students love to go off to their learning centers and are always thrilled when provided with new and exciting materials.

Having individual headsets in the technology center will contribute to a more personal and private experience for all of my students. By donating to our project, you will be helping my students to branch out and explore in new ways. Creating a work of art by using a variety of watercolors is always something that I love seeing my students do. Learning with excitement through experimentation is the best way to learn!
