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

Well, it has started already. We had one day get into the 80's outside and the classroom temperature soared past 85 degrees with a humidity of 58%. This is not only unhealthy but imagine trying to do any sort of mental thinking for a prolonged period of time. Now that was one day, June is an unbearable month in the classrooms. We are requesting fans.

My students really try to get their work done, but it gets so hot in the classroom.

Many of them either get headaches because of the heat, or they just want to put their heads down and do-little work.

Grades 3-5
