Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

My Project

I teach Science and Social Studies to a group of inquisitive, lively, and naturally curious 6th graders. They are curious about the world around them and how it works. Many of them have never ventured farther than their own neighborhoods.

Children learn by doing and seeing, and with these requested materials my students will have hands-on opportunities to explore Newton's Laws of motion, and to explore places throughout the world with a Virtual Reality headset.

Through both discovery, practice, and application my students can learn more about what makes our beautiful, vast, and exciting world both exciting and mysterious.
