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 third graders are full of curiosity and excitement for hands-on learning. To support our science explorations, we need supplies to help us care for our newly hatched chicks and growing butterflies, allowing students to observe life cycles up close and take responsibility for living creatures. In addition to science, we want to nurture creativity with art materials that give students opportunities for self-expression and storytelling. These supplies will make learning more engaging and interactive, blending science and art to create meaningful, hands-on experiences that spark curiosity and a deeper connection to the world around them.
