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

I have a wonderful class of fourth graders. We will be learning about the environment, the planet, and how to recycle in order to save our Earth. I am requesting many science books on how to take care of our planet, how to recycle, and art materials. Students will create posters while working in groups how to recycle, reuse, and reduce. They will find creative ways to present their learning to the class. My class will also get a chance to paint a rock to take home as a reminder to help save our planet.

Teaching students to help save our planet is essential for the next generations to come!

Thank you in advance for your interest in our project and helping us get closer to our goal. My students and I hope to enjoy this project before the year is over. God Bless!
