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

When I think about my students, I refer to the Star Wars quote, "The force is strong with this one" and switch it to "these ones." With that mantra, my students come to school willing to try their best. My students make me want to be a better teacher.

I have been fortunate to have taught for many years, but this year, anything that involves any long term, thematic projects lights my students' faces up.

Anything that has to do with hands-on lessons or activities my students absorb like sponges. I feel that a hands-on approach to learning will greatly benefit my students and their curiosity for learning.

My Project

Help give my students a chance to learn about aquatic animal habitats. This fish tank will house several plants and fish. My goal is to have my students learn about aquatic food webs (Producer, consumer, decomposer). This will also help them understand symbiotic relationships in nature. Even though, this is not a massive tank, it will give an outside perspective of the topic. In addition to learning about this habitat, it also serves as a classroom role. Each student will have to opportunity to be stewards of these aquatic animals. It will give them a sense of responsibility.
