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 love watching my young students explore the world around them. By using their imagination to create unique designs, experimenting with shapes and textures, all while developing their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. At 4 years old, our students really need to learn through play. Using loose parts creates endless opportunities for this.

Meeting the needs of all my students is a huge priority in my class.

With comfortable seating that allows for movement and accommodates the different sizes of my students. I can’t wait to see what they come up with day to day!
