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

I’m going to be using these tools to help my students understand physics. These tools will provide hands-on opportunities for students to see firsthand how certain concepts of science are done. The pendulum will help students understand laws of motion. The interactive notebooks will allow each student to have their own interactive journal to keep notes and to keep track of their data. I would like to have a new rolling desk so that I can be up and active around my classroom engaging with students hands-on teaching for my feet..
