FOR EDUCATORS: LESSONS ABOUT HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH AND FALL FAVORITES
Teaching students about Hispanic Heritage Month is important for fostering cultural appreciation and awareness. Students can learn about food, history, and different cultural activities to increase their understanding of cultures that may not be their own. When learning about the change in seasons, students can learn about nature, science, and celebrations associated with the season change.
