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 creative and hardworking 6th graders of diverse backgrounds. Our demographic has a high population of English Language Learners and most are from low-income homes. I try to teach my students that if you work hard, you can do anything. They love when they accomplish something that they haven't done before and I want to encourage that spark.

Most of my students don't have the background knowledge or resources at home to help them apply what we do in the classroom in the real world.

With donor's help, we can get more books, technology, and equipment into the classroom to help continue the ignition of learning. I want to make sure that each student has one-to-one learning materials and not having to share or go back and forth. We can foster the learning in the classroom to help take it to the next level. We can help give them hands-on experience and enough for each and every student to have the opportunities to learn in the best way possible.

My Project

We have a lot of concepts to cover in our science standards and trying to make deep connections can be challenging. Being able to expose students to real-world examples and situations in which the science we are learning can be applied is extremely beneficial; however, the time, expense and prep of these experiments can be difficult.

Having sets of easy, ready-to-go experiments would be so beneficial to my students and their learning.

These Density Blocks Lab sets will be an easy way to connect what we're learning about molecules, states of matter, and density. I will be able to use them time and time again and the students will be able to have a hands-on experience to better understand density.
