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

We're kicking off the new school year with a new Science curriculum and classroom! Science hasn't always been the top priority at my school, but this year I've been given the opportunity to open a K-5 hands on Science class - and I couldn't be more ec"static" ;)

My students are curious, engaging, and LOVE Science!

I want to give them all of the opportunities they deserve - from exploring with microscopes to studying the weather (with mirrors and "calendars") to experimenting with magnets. I'm excited to dive into all the different science topics with my mini scientists!
