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 bring our bat & owl unit to life with a variety of food chain primary resources and hands-on dissection kits that are sure to ignite our student's curiosity.

Not everyone is ready for a dissection however, starting with owl pellets and jello-molds are a safe way to engage students while making STEM learning (and beginning dissection) an exciting springboard into science and math standards.

These tools, the pellets, and the resources that are included within this project help build an inclusive environment where all students have access to cutting-edge learning opportunities.

This STEM project is going to be an exciting unit of study but more so- a novel way to let students explore and express their collaborative learning.
