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

My students are curious to see the internal anatomy of a frog.

This dissection will help them to see and touch the preserved organs.

Students are very curious to take part in this fun and interesting activity in my science class.

It will help them to understand the position of the organs in the frog.

It will enhance their interest in science and it is a very interesting laboratory exercise for my middle school students.

I always loved dissections from a very young age with my Mom and I hope my students find it interesting and engaging!!
