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
As a first-year biology teacher, I am building a classroom that fosters hands-on learning and deepens students' understanding of biology. Educational posters and slide sets are essential for visualizing complex biological processes, helping students grasp difficult concepts more effectively.
Organizational tools such as storage bins will keep our materials in order, creating a structured and productive environment.
Laboratory equipment such as dissection kits and biological models are critical for interactive learning experiences. These resources will help bring the subject to life, allowing students to explore and experiment, developing both their scientific knowledge and critical thinking skills.
