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 Students

My students are some of the most enthusiastic and happy group who wants to get the best out of their education. They are curious, ask questions, and always willing to lend a helping hand.

My students eyes light up when they understand a scientific concept during a hands-on lab activity!

My students love lab activities that connect with their everyday life and also make the science real to them. I want to bring to them as many activities as possible!

My Project

I want to use my classroom microscope more to look at actual specimens of both plant and animal cells to connect the cells unit structure with their function. Students are having trouble with distinguishing cell parts with what they do inside for living things. I want more concrete examples and exploration under the microscope so they can see just how cool cells are!

I also want to bring more inquiry-based labs using yeast and bacteria cells.

These lab supplies will make the living environment labs so much more engaging! I know my students will understand the cell unit better with these supplies.
