Celebrating 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
Bring a splash of life to our classroom with a 20-gallon fish tank! This living classroom companion will not only add beauty and tranquility but also provide a hands-on learning experience. Students will have the opportunity to study aquatic ecosystems, and take on responsibilities like feeding and maintaining the tank. With engaging lessons on biology, environmental science, and teamwork, the fish tank will become a valuable tool in fostering curiosity, responsibility, and a deeper appreciation for nature. Help us create a vibrant, interactive learning environment!
A 20-gallon fish tank in our Pre-K classroom will bring a world of wonder right into our learning space!
It’s the perfect way to introduce young minds to the beauty of nature, spark curiosity, and foster a sense of responsibility. Watching the fish swim, feed, and interact with their environment helps children develop important skills like observation, empathy, and teamwork. The calming movement of the fish also creates a soothing atmosphere that supports focus and relaxation. Plus, the tank offers endless opportunities for hands-on learning in science, math, and art—making it a fun, engaging addition to our classroom that’s both educational and captivating!
More than half of students from low‑income households
