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 students have always been interested in the solar system and all the planets. We just started a project where they are learning about each planet individually and then we will compare and contrast planets to each other.

I would love for my students to be able to create their own solar system at the end of this unit.

They love a good art project and especially when they are able to use paint. I have paint and paintbrushes so I just need to kits for each student to make their own special solar system!
