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

We love SCIENCE! We want to learn about life cycles of plants and animals.

I teach kindergarten in a high poverty area.

We are a 100% free lunch school. Our families are very transient. Our students are very excited to learn about new things. They have shown tremendous interest in learning about animals and plants. They believe that school is the best place to be!

My Project

I am requesting items that will go with a unit on life cycles. This will include plants and animals. I have included puzzles that can be used as a station for our classroom. Also, I have ordered a flip chart that can be used as a reference to the students. These activities will give my students more hands on ways to learn about the science concepts.

My students are so excited about learning.

They have shown tremendous interest in life cycles. These items will be able to be used in future classes. Your contribution will make a huge impact with children!
