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 in three groups, I am teaching Physics Chemistry & Environmental Science, based on students’ mathematical ability.

In my science class, students are intelligent and active with immense interest to go deep to find the science behind any project.

My students are all extraordinary kids! Most of these students reside in urban area which is mostly underfunded. Although many of them come from tough neighborhoods and lifestyles, they are strong, smart, and full of life. These are the scientists of tomorrow.

These kids are the kinds of kids that inspire innovation. They are the example that leaders should be following and the hope that will fuel the future.

My Project

My Project

I am looking for my classroom hydroponic growing stations for year-round use.

With these growing stations, students will grow their own fresh produce, promoting healthy eating habits while learning about the chemistry and environmental impacts of sustainable fresh foods. Healthy foods are shown to contribute to an overall improvement in mental health.

Most of my students live in small spaces with limited access to any backyard. The hydroponic gardening system will help them to produce plants at home and produce their own food at home.

They will learn about the science behind the project along with enjoying the produce.
