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 Students

My students range in grade levels from Kindergarten to Grade 4. They are all very interested in learning about the different continents, and all the amazing countries which make up our world!

The children love learning about different countries and cultures from all over the world!

They love to explore and research information, and get very excited about learning about new places to visit!

By having access to books about different countries in our classroom, the students will be able to travel to different, wonderful places without leaving our classroom!

My Project

The Building Diversity Bundle and Multicultural Board Books will allow my students the opportunity to learn about different countries and cultures hands on. The students will have access to wonderful books, picture cards and activities to explore the sights, cultures and wonders of the world around us!

Oh, the places we will go.... We will visit countries in North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia and Australia.

Each student will have their own passport, which will be stamped every time we explore a new country and culture.

We can't wait to begin our traveling adventures, and get to know many exciting, wonderful people and places...
