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 have never met a child who did not enjoy at least one aspect of gardening. Whether it was laying the soil or playing in the dirt, planting the seeds, watering, or even weeding, children love being a part of supporting the growth and development of a living thing.

I want to give my students gardening supplies such as gloves so they can truly feel like gardeners and be fully invested in the development of their own garden.

Now that Spring is around the corner, we will engaging in outdoor learning even more. This will include planting and growing our own flowers, and just having some fun with dirt and shovels. I also want to continue our learning inside the classroom, the artificial flowers, pots and beans will be used in our sensory table for students to practice their planting. Please help me in providing these amazing outdoor learning experiences for my students!
