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

Help me give my students the opportunity to see life cycles in real life. By helping me purchase butterfly life cycle kits and ladybug life cycle kits. I would also love to be able to buy plant seeds and the materials needed for them to grow.

I want to show them the life cycle of a plant, butterfly, and ladybug.

These purchases will help my students be able to see and better understand things that happen around them everyday. These awesome life cycles are something that my students may never get to see and experience if they are not done in class.
