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

This recycling project is not just as a waste management initiative, but a valuable learning experience.

Recycling Bins: Make a Difference in Learning - Students practice recycling, reinforcing concepts of social responsibility and environmental health.

Color-coded bins provide visual cues, making sorting easier and more engaging, especially for younger learners. Active participation in recycling fosters a sense of responsibility, ownership and citizenship.

Educational stickers reinforce recycling guidelines and provide visual reminders, they include facts about environmental impact, encouraging students to think critically about consumption and waste. As well as provide a small incentive.
