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

Reading and Science centers that are hands-on and engaging help to stimulate critical thinking, creativity and discovery. Students learn best through multi-sensory, hands-on activities, it allows them to explore, experiment, and discover new ideas.

The Light Table Manipulative Center will allow my students to explore the properties of color and light while building math, language and science skills at the same time.

The Science Viewers and science manipulatives will provide an up close look at animals and spiders and sea life and allow my students to explore, experiment, question, discover and understand natural and human-made objects and forces during center time.
