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

Hello, and thank you for considering our request for colors. We use colors in many of our chemistry projects in my class. We make rainbows in test tubes, we make rainbows with paper towels, we use color in elephant toothpaste and I hope we will make some rainbow paper this year too. (The shaving cream and squeegees help with this)

My student use colors for many projects.

They learn measuring, using lab equipment and so many other things. I hope they will learn something new with each adventure. I try new things with my students when I see something that appears to be a good idea. It makes it so much easier to have the supplies ready to roll.
