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

The end of the year is quickly approaching, and we have tons of fun activities planned for our outstanding students. One of those activities is a water play day. We will set up an obstacle course, including tons of water, during the last day of school. Fresno gets quite warm during summer, so this water-play day is received well. With water, comes soaking wet children. We ask the kiddos to bring a towel, but most don't have one they can use outside. Those that do bring a towel, usually bring the same one they use after their bath time. They could use an outdoor towel.

Please help my dripping kiddos dry off with a brand-new beach towel.
