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 Students

My class is an amazing group of students who face many challenges. We are a rural, K-8 school, where every child receives a free breakfast and lunch. Most of my students live well below the poverty level, but you would never know it from their positive attitudes. They are just excited to come to school and learn.

My goal is to provide my students with a variety of teaching tools to foster engagement, confidence, and success.

Then we can learn our standards together through opportunities to collaborate, to be creative, and to learn twenty-first-century skills.

My Project

One way to collaborate and be creative is by planting seeds together, watering them, giving them nutrients and sunshine, and watching them grow into plants! We will be doing this as a part of our science curriculum, and especially as an opportunity to celebrate Earth Day.

My goal is to build a garden wall from EverBlocks that students can sit on when we take our plants, and our learning outside!

EverBlocks are building blocks that can be put together (like giant legos) to build many different things. We can also reconfigure and rebuild our garden wall to be a table that we can use when transplanting our plants into the outdoor garden.

Let's celebrate Earth Day every day!
