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

Help make magical memories with Holiday read aloud books. Help in creating fun, interactive, and exciting themed activities for third grade students.

We are ready to countdown to Christmas through literature, arts, and STEM activities.

We can’t wait to get started using these wonderful tools to encourage literacy and to guide our learning. Please consider supporting the student’s understanding of holiday diversity , creativity and just good old fashioned holiday fun! We look forward to a jolly good time. Thank you!
