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 enthusiastic and curious. They love hands-on activities but they need help keeping their lab supplies organized.

The lab tape and dispenser will allow students to have the type of tape they need to keep their supplies organized no matter what lab we are doing.

The lab tape is a special quality that will allow the students to label their samples for the lab bench, freezer, or oven! No matter what the lab, the tape will help my students take better observations without the worry of mixing up materials or ruining glassware with everyday tape.
