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

I teach the best group of fifth grade students. They have a genuine need to learn and explore. Our last unit in social studies is geography. Having this classroom set of atlas's would help enhance the exploration of the different regions of the united states.

I would love to enhance the exploration and study materials for my group of fifth grade students.

In creating this project I hope to gain the ability to help my students explore more affectively in the classroom. These texts would allow for me to continue the exploration of each future group of fifth grade students. I feel that these texts would take the learning to the next level for these as well as future students.
