Help me give my students an amazing fish tank that would motivate students science curiosity. The fish tank would provide students emotional stability and improve science learning and explore new thing and discover the sea world.
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 Students
My students are new arrivals from different Spanish-speaking countries. They come from low-income families. I have 17 students who have a lot of energy and are ready to learn. They love to explore and have a lot of curiosity.
These children have needs that our school is trying to fulfill, but it can be challenging because we don't have enough funds.
With the materials that we have, we try to make it work, however, we need science and math tools to enhance their learning and skills. I want them to explore and be able to discover and open their mind to new tools and be able to create their own ideas.
My students are a big a part of my life, and I want to have an impact on their learning journey!
My Project
My students wonder all the time about life science under the sea. Investigation, exploring and curiosity would meet all my students expectation.They love to know about unknown and wondering aspects and explore animals habitats.
Students will be learning about how they will take care and be responsible with them.
I am so excited that my students care about helping animals. They would learn about the fish life. They need to be expose to explore animals habitat and having a fish tank we can develop the experience of learning science inside our classroom. They would expand the important of investigating unknown habitat around them.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
