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

These items will help visually see what different vehicles look like. We also will be talking about the careers that go along with that vehicle. An examples is the Wood Spaceship will be used during our Earth, Moon, and Sky Unit. We will discuss how does an astronaut travel in space? We will use a rocket ship launcher, and the outer space rug, etc. We will talk about fire station and wooden farm playset. These vehicles will help students visually see how transportation is used in everyday life and help them to make real world connections.
