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.

Hi there! I teach seventh grade science and health and really love my job! I teach five periods of health and life science. This semester is life science and next semester we begin health. My students are all very curious kids who I enjoy working with a lot.

I have been fortunate enough to get help on here before for supplies in my classroom which have been put to good use! Now, I am hoping to have human skeleton mini models added to my classroom for students to carry to their desks to look over and review the bones.

I think these models will help students become more engaged in learning about the skeletal system. The models have movable joints and are about 17 inches high making them very mobile.

I know that these models will help my students learn the names of the bones and about the different types of joints and their movement. I would really appreciate your help in getting these models in the hands of my students. Thank you so much!
