Help me give my students supplies we need for our classroom pet axolotl!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Segarra's classroom raised $380
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
Having a classroom pet can teach students important values such compassion, empathy and responsibility for other living things. Students will also learn leadership skills and have added stress relief within our classroom. My students and I are excited to have a classroom pet and have decided on an axolotl! In having a classroom pet I hope to show students how to properly care for living things, use the set up of the tank and cycling of the water as a STEM teaching opportunity, as well as a way to engage students by assigning care as a classroom job as an incentive.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
