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

Students in my class are learning about the life cycle and are also in the IB unit of "Sharing the Planet." These materials will allow them to have a real life experience of the life cycle of two insects. We are also learning to use Reduce, Reuse, Recycle in our everyday life. The plastic reusable cups will be given to them to use in school and after p.e. and recess. This and the recycling bin are another real life example, as they are learning the 3 R's which in this case would be reusing!
