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 are so excited about our social studies and science units. Some of our units are focused on ancient civilizations, weather, and energy. We are creating various projects to help them explore and dive deeper into the content. STEM projects are an excellent strategy to extend their learning and understanding of these standards.

Our STEM projects will engage all of my learners in the classroom while integrating other content standards.

Students will be able to create Cuneiform tablets from the Sumerians and attempt to replicate the Great Wall of China.
