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

The materials in this project will allow the third grade to engage in a collaborative, fun, and engaging end of year project to culminate our learning!

Each third grader will research an animal, create a model of that animal in their habitat, and then present about their animal to their 3rd grade peers.

This project will not only be memorable but also allow students to practice many skills such as reading, note taking, writing, building, problem solving, and public speaking. Please support us in our endeavors as without these materials, we will not be able to allow our students to express their creativity and all that they have learned this year.
