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

5th Grade is an exciting year to learn new things! As a new 5th grade teacher I would love for my students to have new resources to engage them in the learning process.

My students this year have shown a special interest in science and history!

They are motivated to learn more and these books will be a great resource. The books will also help with exciting projects. In the last quarter of the school year our class will create a project on an individual from the American Revolution. In science my students will extend their learning on the solar system by creating a group solar system project.

The White board and math cards will be a great resource for math! This year my students are very engaged when they are learning on their feet! The white board will be a great resource, and give us more flexibility with math groups.

Thank you!

Mr. Burgoyne Edwin Dodson Elementary School Grades 3-5
