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 are currently learning about the human system and how to maintain homeostasis before this knowledge. Students will be investigating information that is relevant to our daily lives. For example, we will need a color printer to print our resources and information for our research and reference. We will use the variety of chips to explore the nutrition of the packet and test the amount of sodium and other facts to see if the chips should be something for you to consume all day or just once in a while. We also request the oral thermometer for students to compare the external and internal temperature when we experience the temperature change drastically each day.

Later, some of our students requested the project of creating a substance mixture to explore the chemical reaction and ways to support our emotional regulations in our science classroom.

They demand some substance to make slime and putty at the school.

The color printer will be the number one resource for us to create our resource mat in our classroom because it will support us with the details of different cells when we design and print it out. Each group will also plan to present their project about the bacteria infecting the human body. They will need the color picture to support their project reference.
