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 want to bring world history alive for my students! While today's technology may give us access to the everywhere in the world on our screens, I want to go back to the basics: books!

I hope my students will learn that opening a book is even better than opening an app.

Reading can and will be way more gratifying than scrolling. This variety of books, maps, and timelines will help bring the wonders of the world into our classroom.

My students work in collaborative learning groups of 4-5 students. Each group will have their own library to engage and enhance their understanding of the world and its history.
