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

My students are energetic, excited scholars! They love science and enjoy learning about the world around them. They also enjoy learning about the universe. Help me continue to grow their curiosity by purchasing science kits that will help them learn via hands on projects.

These planet kits, planetary motion kits, and earthquake kits will help them understand science with hands-on projects.

My students are low income and often it is difficult for families to purchase items to help them create projects at home. I do not want to ask this of them. Therefore, I need to provide these items. As a Title I school, it is difficult to get everything I need for these projects.

The markers, tri-fold presentation boards and science kits will be an exciting and hands-on way for my students to learn about earthquakes and the solar system.
