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

My goal for this project is to give the students an assortment of markers to help enhance their work. They will be about to make more creative posters and designs for their assignments. They will be able to use different types of shades of markers to make their work stand out.

We are currently working on designing an electrical vehicle where they need to come up with a business plan and construct a car to present.

These different shades of markers will allow them to create more unique designs and make their posters stand out.

My students are so special because they are bilingual. They read and write in two languages. They have been in school since kindergarten learning both English and Spanish. I want them to be able to see they can also be great scientists and engineers. Thanks so much for investing in our classroom.

Ms. Jimenez
Grades 3-5
