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

Please help contribute to our classroom! This school year is going to be project based and the supplies needed will help science come alive for my classroom. The students will be learning about various topics from Space to the Human Body. The supplies requested will help my students learn about Newton's Laws, matter, and many other topics.

My goal for this project is to promote student engagement and excitement through Science.

The projects being done this year will be a hands-on, minds-on experience. What makes my students special is their ability to persevere despite their disabilities.
