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

Biology is a course for exploring how living organisms perform and interact. These dissection kits will make a difference in students' understanding of human organs by exploring and dissecting frogs and their organs. Since we know that frogs have mostly the same organs as humans this would be the perfect and best representation of human organs.

This project will give a meaningful experience to the students because they will do it hands-on and I always believe that learning is best when you do it physically.

It's Learning by Doing.
