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

Students will do an experiment to explore the dangers of climate change. Some of the areas of concern are the health of humans and we will dig deeper into this topic by doing some research using the kits that we purchased. Then I will teach them how to use a microscope and look at slides to prepare them for what they will see when they do their experiment.

Climate change is an important topic and just telling them doesn't do it justice.

This is why I wanted them to be able to see the difference by looking at the change.

Thank you donors, for your generosity!
