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

These items that I am requesting are for my students to have a fantastic time when coming to the science classroom. In the beginning of the school year we made a poll and asked what were some students interested in learning. Many wrote about our human anatomy. Science is all about learning and giving them experiences to learn. With the help of our skeleton they will learn about the human body. Space and learning about earth came into play as well.

Many of my students are excited to learn about the galaxy and the human body.

Students will benefit from the resources of having a human Skelton because they will be able to see it in front of them and be able to have interactions. As to some of my students learn visual. My goal is to give them a fun experience and have more than actually have a skeleton in front for them to see. My students are special because they come always eager to learn about the next exciting things in science!
