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

Please help me give my students some fun and interactive books about nature and exploring the outdoors!

Spring is here and we are beginning to explore our school garden and have started to get our hands in the soil!

We are so excited to start planting in the garden and to watch our plants grow. We have also welcomed 4 new caterpillars into our classroom that we are anxiously awaiting their metamorphosis!

Please help me give my students books that will help us learn all about the life cycle of butterflies and other critters as well!
