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

The items in "Hands on Learning" are materials will help my students become more engaged in the subjects of social studies and science. I would like to reach all of my students style of learning to help them grow.

My students will be able to learn about the Cultures Around The World with Lakeshore Social Studies Instant Learning Centers, use the Safety Goggles when conducting science experiments and use the magnifier when looking at the Insect & Fish Viewer.

These materials will strengthen their knowledge in Social Studies and Science.

My students are special in the way they come to school every day ready to learn. These materials will help make learning more interesting and fun.
