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

I am so excited for this new project for my students! They are extremely deserving of some end of the year fun!

The end of the school year can be a bittersweet time for kids and teachers.

I like to end my school year by providing them with a couple fun activities to give them long-lasting 3rd grade memories.

They love to decorate our playground with colorful pictures and positive message for the end of the year.

And my favorite activity for my kiddos is giving the a beach ball and a marker so they can sign each other's beach balls as a special memoir of third grade!
