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

This project will help my students get the hands-on experience that they may not experience before. With these items will help my students have an introduction to a fascinating world of hydroponic planting without using soil. Also, how to care for live animals in the classroom and watch them hatch and grow. Lastly, for them to see and learn the life cycle of nature with watching the life cycle with butterflies. With these items students will be able to have the experience that may never had before. Thank you in advance.
