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 Students

I am a science teacher in a title one school in the Bronx. Hands-on activities are a huge part of my classes! I would love for each small group of students in my various classes to have access to microscopes. This will help them discover the world in a fun, hands-on way! I will place the micrscopes in a center toward the back of my room. The various microscopes activities will be an ongoing thing. I look forward to enlightening my students! Thank you!

My Project

The microscopes will allow my students to work in small groups to discover the real world of science using their sense of sight! They will collect and analyze data and draw conclusions! I have created hands-on lessons that will challenge my students to think, explore, and learn in a fun, stress free classroom environment. Students will research various topics prior to using the microscopes to add to their prior knowledge. They will then work in groups to make predictions as to what these microscopic specimens look like. They will then record their predictions on their data tables. Next, my students will look at the various specimens through the microscopes and record their results. They will draw conclusions, record their findings in written form or drawing diagrams, and present to our whole class!
