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

It's time to explore space! Imagine walking into a class that has transformed into a planetarium! We want to study the solar system with the splendors of space projected all around us. We can make this happen for our science students with a classroom star projector! With this project we can go beyond reading about the marvels of outer space to actually feeling as though we are observing them up close!

Help our class create a planetarium in our science lab with this projector and discs!

With a projector and slides, students can identify the planets, look at marvelous and iconic nebulas, see the glorious Milky Way, observe and identify the star constellations, and appreciate our beautiful planet Earth! The ceilings of our science classroom will become a place of wonder with our own planetarium.

Please support this immersive learning experience for all students in my science classes. Donate today. Thank you for supporting science education!
