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

Hello! I'm so glad you stopped by to help support my classroom and students. I am a first-year teacher, looking to support my fifth-grade students in their exploration of ecosystems, and the various things within the solar system. The items on my list are going to provide a more hands-on and interactive approach to learning about science.

With this project, my fifth-grade students will be more engaged, and involved.

My goal with this project is if a student is more curious or wants to continue to explore more parts of our science topics, these items will allow them to do so. My students have a willingness to learn and are the future leaders of our society. These items will set them up to be successful, responsible students of today and the futures of society.
