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

Please help give my students a classroom pet by providing the materials needed to be able to care for a fish. We need a fish Aquarium and rock to be able to bring a fish (es) into our classroom. My students are very excited since we have learned about pets and how to be responsible and be able to care for a pet. Many of my students do not have a pet at home. Having a class pet can give my students the opportunity and experience of caring for a pet.

Having a pet in the classroom teaches my students empathy, how to care for a pet, how living things work, and can help with self-regulation.

Having a pet in our classroom also covers a preschool learning foundation in science which students will recognize that animals and plants require care and begin to associate feeding and watering with the growth of human, animals, and plants. Providing these materials will help us fulfill our dream.
