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

Having a science lab in kindergarten is important because it provides young children with hands-on learning experiences that spark curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking. At this age, kids learn best through exploration and play, and a dedicated science lab allows them to experiment, observe, and discover the world around them in a meaningful way.

A science lab helps develop foundational STEM skills, encourages problem-solving, and fosters a love for inquiry-based learning.

It also supports language development as children learn to ask questions, describe their observations, and collaborate with peers. Most importantly, it lays the groundwork for a lifelong interest in science and discovery, helping children develop the confidence to explore and understand the world.
