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.

I am a Science Lab teacher in Texas. Our urban elementary school has about 700 students, 125 of them being fourth graders.

Kids love rocks!! They're always bringing in samples and using hand lenses to check them out. Unfortunately, an urban coastal city is not the best place to go rock collecting. I want to give them experiences with the basic types of rocks and minerals, observe the results of erosion /deposition over time, and the many uses for rocks/minerals in their everyday life.

The rock/mineral kits will help them observe samples of rocks/minerals found throughout the world. The stream tables will be useful to demonstrate rock formation, erosion and deposition.

Your help will ensure that my fourth grades will experience the thrill of observing and testing the properties of rocks/minerals.
