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

Our class uses hands on manipulatives very often. Due to the lack of access to color printing most of these manipulatives are in black and white and lack the interest of color pictures. This printer and ink would allow my class to use and even create color activities to use in our science activities. I think this would increase interest and participation as well as understanding in our science class room. My students are very excited for the prospect of printing their canvas projects to be hung and shown off.
