🌎🎉 Hispanic Heritage Month Classroom Celebration 🎉🌎
Fifth grade teacher Odeneal and ESL teacher Dr. G presented a lesson celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. Students connected their ELA study of Lewis and Clark and Indian Country in the 1800s with the histories of Indigenous peoples in Spanish-speaking countries. Together, they compared cultures, foods, education, and natural resources, sharing what they learned about similarities and differences across the Americas. We had a great time learning about these communities and appreciating their lasting contributions.
🌮🥑❤️A special thank-you to the mother of our student Ashley Farlow-Landon for generously donating chips and salsa for our celebration.
