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

Our class is becoming a recycling superstar squad! To help us learn all about what we can recycle and how it helps our planet, we'll be using some awesome tools.

Our Tech Team: We'll use a laptop to create a super cool newsletter called "The Recycling Rocketship" to share all our recycling adventures with families and the community!

We will also research different recyclable materials and watch fun videos about recycling trucks!

We'll be sorting our classroom waste into special recycling bags using a bright blue recycling bin and our Lego recycling truck set to imagine the journey our recyclables take after they leave our classroom! Thanks in advance for all your help getting this set up for us to bop into the summer with recycling!
