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

My class is full of eager learners, that thirst to learn science and STEAM through exploration and the scientific method. What better way to have students learn than by using hands-on experiments and experiences.

With your help, these materials will be instrumental in helping my students succeed in science and excel in STEAM.

Some of the interesting and creative projects I have planned include:

Creating a Solar Oven (Timer & Thermometer)

Observing how temperature affects different substances (Beakers & Cylinders)

Exploring how electricity works (Flashlights & Batteries)

I thank you for your help in making this happen for my students.
