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 3rd grade class is full of creative and excited learners. They love to express their ideas through art, stories, and projects. Giving them a chance to share what they’ve learned with others will boost their confidence and help them become better communicators.

Our class is passionate about recycling!

The students have started a recycling awareness campaign to teach the school and their families about why recycling matters. They want to create mini presentations using posters, recycled props, markers, and display boards. The microphone will help them speak clearly, get their message across, and inspire action.

This project is a wonderful way to help students become leaders while caring for the environment and practicing new skills that will help them throughout their lives
