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

This year our school has incorporated projects that represent the students showcasing their identities. What better way for students to explore how money influence our lives through literacy and practice. Students love playing with the play money in class pretending to buy things, pretending to save their money. Teaching students good money habits in class is a key skill to good money habits.

These books will help students be able to investigate math, money and a sense of self.

Students will be about to learn and make connections to the world and themselves.

A key life skill is money management. Why wait till Middle school and high school. It is important that students being to have an understanding of financial literacy.
