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

It is never too early to cultivate kindness and empathy towards all living things. As children care for animals, they learn about similarities, differences, and needs( food, shelter, water, air, and space). Animals can teach valuable lessons such as responsibility, patience, forgiveness, and friendship. As a result, compassion and empathy can grow and deepen. My goal is to foster love and respect for all living things by engaging in conversations, role-playing, and creating awareness of needs. With these materials, my students will learn the importance and the role that all living things have in the world
