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 Students

Children learn by doing and seeing! Do you remember doing science experiments in class?

My students go to a public elementary school in Florida.

We are a Title 1 school, as a majority of the students are on free or reduced lunch. A large population of our students are ESOL 1 so they are non- English or limited English speakers. Although our school is predominately Hispanic, we do have students from many non-Hispanic countries. All of them are, however, very eager to learn and explore the scientific world.

My Project

Having an iPad with case in class, which can be connected to an LCD projector, would help my students tremendously! I would be able to show science videos from Discovery Education and other science websites, in both English and Spanish, as well as show experiments done by students in other classes. With limited science supplies and antiquated equipment, these lessons would be very beneficial.

My students are so hungry for science knowledge and have not had the opportunities many other children have.

This iPad will help them reach their potential. By incorporating different learning techniques such as videos and power point presentations, I am sure each student will learn in their way and have success in science.
