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

This project requests items needed to help learn how to care for our environment and climate and also gain valuable hands on life skills. Students will be able to start a class garden to grow fresh herbs we utilize while cooking in class.

Caring for Our environment is a life skill that is so important and with this project, students will learn they how and why.

The technology items such as the kindle reader will help students reading skills without wasting paper, students will have the ability to read anywhere and be sustainable at the same time. Cups will be used to learn to make coffee and will make special cards to show how and why recycling is crucial to help our environment.The nintendo switch will be a rewarding experience for students while they earn a brain break.
