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 currently have our science program where materials are not organized and difficult to access. They are smashed in drawers where they are difficult to access and reach.

My students need a bookshelf where they can organize their science kits, tools, and materials based on their units of study.

Each shelf would organize materials in Earth Science, Life Science, and Physical Science. With this bookshelf, students will be able to access and gather materials for their group. Captains or group leaders would organize a refill station that can be used for other content areas like health, art, math, and social studies. This bookshelf will be very useful for all.
