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

Please help my class be creative in a positive way and help take care of our Earth with this Earth Day reusable bag activity. The student have collected plastic grocery bags from home and donated them to the school for Earth Day. The project will allow them to be creative and use their artistic abilities to draw using the markers on the canvas bags. The bags will be taken home and used as a reusable grocery bag for the students to help the environment on a daily basis to help celebrate Earth Day.
