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 Project

Have you ever helped a high school student clean out their backpack? If so, you are probably familiar with the assortment of wrinkled, forgotten worksheets and hand-outs that emerge from the depths of the backpack. In my classroom, students capture their learning in one place - an interactive science notebook.

Science notebooking not only keeps students organized, but is an essential practice for any future scientist!

In their notebooks, students not only record observations of their investigations but also draw models to explain phenomena, make notes on sense-making discussions, and complete formative assessments to check for understanding. I also like for my students to have ready access to everything they need to keep a well-organized notebook - glue, scissors, highlighters, and pencils. Having these materials readily available at each time helps us maximize our instructional time in the classroom
