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

Each year, my second graders research and write an animal report. They choose their animal and work for weeks to complete it. These materials will help them when they write and when they present their reports to the class.

These materials will help them organize their work.

The erasers are to help them with their original draft. The Flair pens will be used for their final product. The file folders will be used to present the pages and work to the class. They are learning to be more independent, and these reports help them to be prepared for third grade.
