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

My students learn best with hands-on real-life experiences. Learning about life cycles can be an abstract concept even with photographs. However, when my students experience seeing each stage in the life cycle, they never forget it.

Life Science and the study of Life Cycles occur for all elementary students.

My class consists of students from kindergarten to fifth grade so I need to be prepared to give my students content for each grade level. Ladybug and butterfly kits, along with books and 3D models will allow each of my students to fully experience the concepts of growth and development.
