I Grow Like Plants!

Help me give my students crayons, a craft kit, glue sticks, and other resources to learn how plants grow, where fruits and vegetables we share come from, how recycling affects the plants around us, how to plant their own plant and the process of photosynthesis.

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

The topic we will be covering is reduce, reuse, recycle. In this project I teach the boys and girls in my classroom things that we can recycle and what happens to the things we no longer use. We will also learn how plants grow, where the fruits and vegetables we share come from, and how recycling affects the plants around us. This will teach children how to take care of their planet, and they will learn the steps to plant their own plant as well as the process of photosynthesis.

The required materials including crayons, a craft kit, glue sticks, and other resources.

They will help children complete their project and how to take care of their materials. They will draw the plant process with markers. They will cut and use glue sticks to learn about materials that we can recycle. As a final project, they will see how plants grow and learn about different ones, including fruits and vegetables but also flowers. Your contribution will help raise awareness in children to keep their environment clean, healthy and safe.
