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

My Kindergarten students love getting their pictures taken. Now I want them to take pictures of their work in class and out in their garden. It would be a great opportunity for them to track the growth of their garden plants.

The Polaroid camera is easy for Kindergarten students to use and seeing their pictures instantly will be a great experience for them.

Throughout the year we do many art activities and science projects. It would be great to create a scrapbook where students can showcase their work. Many projects are big and capturing it on film would be a great keepsake.
