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

Our students are preparing to create wonderful memories in their new garden. They will learn to plant, water the plants, do the gardening, and learn about nature in the classroom. The materials will give each student seeds and planting tools to have fun in their garden.

They will set up, discuss how they plant, and how to take care of the plants.

They will also be responsible to take care of their garden and enjoy outside learning.

The students will grow their plants in our garden and then bring home a pot they decorated with their flowers to share with their families.
