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 first graders are starting a new unit about space. To better learn about this exciting topic, I am requesting a few interactive games and toys so that this subject is more hands-on. I am asking for sets of stacking blocks to learn about planet shapes and gravity. I am also asking for a cardboard replica of a spaceship so that students can color it and explore inside. I would also like planet fidget poppers so that students get to know the different planets in our solar system. Thank you for helping our class learn about this fun and exciting topic!
