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 third-grade students are quick learners, it doesn't take long for them to grasp the concept I am teaching. What makes my students special is that they are problem solvers and try their best to figure things out before I intervene. They are a diverse group of students who are always willing to learn something new.

Each resource was hand picked to supply our Earth and life science STEAM unit.

My students will use pipe cleaners, tape, and paper to create the tallest standing structure. They will utilize glue, crayons, and markers to complete Earth science activities. In addition, they will use headphones, mousepads, copy paper, and ink to conduct a research project on Life science. I can't wait to see my students learning about Earth, plants, and animals.
