Celebrating 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 school is a Title 1 school with over 80 % of our scholars who are economically disadvantaged. However, my sweet scholars come in with a smile, kind word, and a hard-working attitude. I am new to this community/school and we are lacking in so many resources such as manipulatives, books, and school supplies. I’ve spent so much out of my own pocket, but as the year progresses, I realize I need more in order to support their love of learning. Many of my students come in sharing how they didn’t have the resources to complete assignments because of lack of supplies. Most of them I would like to give them as much as possible to help them succeed and learn.
My students are inquisitive and motivated to learn reading, math and taking care of our earth.
Unfortunately, our school does not have materials to conduct Science experiments that I believe would foster this love of learning. With your help, you can not only assist my classroom, but I could a classroom set of materials available for all classes to utilize with a rotation schedule.
Thank you for impacting our humble community.
My Project
My scholars are eager not only eager to learn about our world, but how to protect it! I am a brand new teacher in a small, but humble tight-knit community. I am missing many of the materials needed to allow my scholars to explore our world.
My students need a variety of items in order to explore and learn science through hands-on activities and experiments.
I don't just want to talk about life cycles I want them to observe with their very own eyes and be able to create life cycles using modeling clay. I would like for them to experience recording their observations on white boards and utilize dry erase markers you will purchase. Various experiments will require hand lens, thermometers, card stock for learning vocabulary words complete with small plastic storage bins to put away their work. We will further explore using magnets, scales and so much more.
