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

My awesome first graders love Science and Social Studies. They are very interested in and enjoy reading about the world around them. We need a subscription to Scholastic News and Science Spin to keep my young learners engaged. I want to create a fun environment for them so they can enjoy Science and Social Studies topics.

We want to increase our knowledge and this is an exciting way to achieve this!

I want to be able to get them to learn through fun activities. Having their very own magazine to read will help achieve this goal.
