🌎 Hispanic Heritage Month: Week 3 Content Spotlight

Hello, Keith families!

This week, we continue celebrating the creativity, leadership, and achievements of influential Hispanic and Latino people. Their stories help us explore how people from different cultures and backgrounds have shaped our world and connect to what students learn at Keith.

📎 Check the attachments to read about this week’s influential people by content area! Together, explore their contributions to science, mathematics, literature, history, the arts, and more.

📚 Connection to learning
As students read, encourage them to consider how each person used their knowledge and talents to make a difference. Learning about these individuals can help students discover new interests and imagine how they might contribute to their own communities.

💬 Family conversation
Choose one person from the attachments and discuss:

• What accomplishment stood out to you, and why?
• How did this person’s work help others?
• What talent or interest could you use to make a difference?

Your child can begin with: “I was inspired by _____ because _____.” Talk, write, or draw together in any language your family uses!

At Keith, we love celebrating culture and creating opportunities for students to take pride in their identities while learning about others.

Share someone who inspired your family in the comments! 💙⚓💛
