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

Using science materials to educate, engage and explore for little curious minds.

The magnify glasses will help see objects through the eyes of a "Scientist" Students will be able to look in the magnifying glasses to see the world with more clarity while encouraging new skills and a new way to learn.

Kids can use magnifying glasses to examine toys indoors or take the fun outdoors studying rocks, nature, and even insects.

The Science explore centers will have hands on learning with experiments that show students the life of science such as "sink or float', what is a magnet and what material does it stick to. Students will be able to answer their questions by doing simple science experiments.

The phonic centers will give children the hands-on practice they need to really master phonic sounds. It helps with missing beginning, middle and ending of words. These centers can be used with multiple students at the same time.
