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 love to work in small groups. Working in small groups gives my students the opportunity to use their problem solving and leadership skills to practice.

Working in small groups not only allow my students to demonstrate their new learning while being creative, but it also help strengthen their speaking skills and helps boost their confidence.

Poster paper, markers and other other organizing materials will greatly help my students be successful in practicing 21st Century skills. These skills are not only important in their education, but my students also need to sharpen these skills in order to be college and career ready.

Grades 3-5
