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 need pens, cardstock, pencils, easel pads, sign holders, and other materials to help processes their science skills. Most students struggle to complete their school supply list. The items needed for the classroom so that ALL students embrace and focus on learning science instead of not having the necessary items to succeed in class.

We will use these materials to plan and implement comparative and descriptive investigations, while making observations, asking defined questions and testable hypothesis.

Student will use the materials to assist them in collecting data, constructing data tables and graphs, and analyzing scientific explanations of the real world.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
