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

Learning about the environment is a fun way to learn especially with young learners. Hands on activities are the best way to learn for my students. They get to explore and learn through observation and manipulating objects. These resources are sure to be engaging and motivating for the my UTK students.

By using all of their senses they are able to learn about their environment in a fun and engaging way!

The science cards will challenge their thinking and boost their knowledge about animals and insects around them. The Discovery Bins will help them explore and challenge their thinking through exploration. The Science Center and Magnetic Plant bin will help them make connection to the environment around them. They will be able to share their learning with peers and family too.
