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

Can you remember conducting a science experiment when you were little? Kids are excited about science, not so much because of the textbook or teacher demonstrations, but because pretending to be a real live scientist with goggles and all of the tools is great fun!

Like all students, my sweeties thrive during active learning!

They are thrilled to get out their little science notebooks and, as Ms. Frizzle from the Magic School Bus would always say, "Get messy! Make mistakes!" Last year, we studied the book Rocky Road Trip during our reading block and replicated a lot of the experiments during science. When Ms. Frizzle has her students opening geodes in this fun chapter book, I could tell that my kids were crossing their fingers in hopes that I would have some crystal-filled rocks for them to crack open. Unfortunately, our science budget didn't cover geodes for all the little scientists. This year, I hope to change that with your help!

My Project

As we complete the chapter on geodes, we will unveil an amazing surprise. Geodes for all! Each child will use a hammer to crack open some amazing geodes. After seeing what they really look like and studying how they form by making our own crystals, the kids will be able to take their shiny specimens home to share their learning with their parents.

I don't want an insufficient budget to be the reason that my students miss out on wonderful learning activities!

Being able to crack open geodes and study the formation will inspire my darlings to think about scientific career paths, like being a geologist! This will be an activity that will bring some smiles to some sweet faces. Thank you for sharing in my vision to help my students become passionate about their learning!
