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

Safety and experimentation are the 2 biggest components of a science classroom. It allows for students to engage in both kinesthetic and visual based learning which can be very impactful for students who struggle with a traditional auditory based lesson. With over 60% of my students learning English as a second language, I want to design a course that is experimentation rich in order to inspire them to pursue careers in STEM.

With these supplies, my students will be able to apply the concepts they've learned in class in a safe manner that will enhance their learning regardless of language barriers.

The lamination machine will enable me to create liquid resistant materials and procedures which can be used throughout all my classes. The scales can be used for a variety of different labs such as measurement, density or setting up chemical reactions. Since safety is a key component to any scientific endeavor, I am requesting gloves and goggles as well.
