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

Reading is fundamental but reading about science is FUN. These wonderful elementary school students are extremely intelligent and curious about everything that they learn in school. Giving students the opportunity to explore and interact with science concepts is an excellent way to learn.

Reading is fundamental but reading about science is FUN!

Questions are asked before, during and after every lesson and discussions that generate great topics. The curiosity that is involved with science everyday makes learning more exciting for the students. Reading about the topics they are curious about will be an exciting addition to the science classroom.
