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

In our high school Human Anatomy and Physiology classroom, learning about the human body is more than memorizing facts. It is about making real connections and engaging with complex systems in meaningful ways. I am seeking donations to provide interactive notebooks for each of my students to use throughout the school year as a hands on learning tool.

Interactive notebooks help students organize information, reflect on key concepts, and actively engage with the material through diagrams, foldables, and personalized notes.

These notebooks allow students to take ownership of their learning, build critical thinking skills, and make science come alive in a way that traditional methods often do not. For many of my students, having access to quality learning materials can be a challenge, and a well organized notebook becomes an essential resource for study and review.

Your support will put an interactive notebook into the hands of a future healthcare worker, scientist, or curious learner who is eager to understand how the body works. With your help, we can give every student the tools they need to succeed.
