Hands-on Learning

Help me give my students unforgettable hands-on experiences. I would love a microscope to teach kids to observe the world around them and work through dissecting owl pellets as they learn about animals and food chains.

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 students are a group of unique and diverse young learners, who learn best with hands-on activities such as these. I plan to use these materials to create lasting impressions on my children that will build an interest in STEM and give them an inquiry based approach to solving problems in their futures. Activities like these have the power to cross language barriers and bridge gaps in learning in a way that worksheets or videos never could. Help me make my classroom a place of meaningful discovery and thoughtful questioning.
