Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Earth Day is soon coming and my students will be more than happy to enjoy different books, that enhances their understanding about our planet earth. My students love to read and share what they learn with each other. Learning can be fun!. So with the help of variety of books along with mini art projects, on the topic can help my students become more knowledgeable on saving our planet earth. They will be able to plant seeds and watch them grow. They will be able to use these plants because they are edible, useful and not wasteful.

My students are all scholars, although they learn on different levels they are all equal and should get the same opportunities as any other students in the US.

They each come from diverse backgrounds and languages but they all live in the same community. They miss out on many opportunities in life but it’s up to us teachers to bridge that gap by providing them with the basic tools to help them learn better and grow to success.
