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

In my classroom we focus on SEAL and right now we are learning about different transportation vehicles. My students are so brilliant and are always ready to learn new things whether it’s through books or play.

Being able to receive the “Capstone Press In My Neighborhood Books- set of 5” will give my students information and answers to their what, how, and why questions about the different transportation vehicles that they see in their neighborhoods everyday.

My goal for this project as their teacher would be to fill their little brains with all the information possible about different transportation vehicles. I want them to know what they do, how they work, and what makes them so important and useful in our community.
