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

Back together again! My class and I were together as 3rd graders and we can’t wait to continue to grow together as 4th graders! We would like to add new flexible seating options. We will be focusing on our math skills and more hands on science experiences! Mastering multiplication, division, money and telling time this school year! My students are already working hard in learning about plants, so they can teach their kindergarten reading buddies. We will be growing our own vegetables together once we have all learned about the life cycle of a plant and nutritious plants! We can’t wait to get started!
