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

My students are very hands-on kinesthetic learners. They enjoy learning through movement and hands on experiences which is difficult to allow them to do with limited access to resources. I teach math and science and these resources would greatly help them explore concepts we are learning about in class. These books will also help them further their love of reading. So many of my students love science and so these books would peak their interest. All of these resources and books would be so beneficial to the students in my class and and really allow them the opportunity to explore what we have learned.
