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 need materials for their science centers that are related to their unit of study on insects and life cycles. My students will learn about the butterfly cycle and various other life cycles. The materials I am asking for will give my students the opportunity to observe, manipulate, and discover insects and their parts. Students will use these to draw in their journals and have a better understanding of the parts of an insect. The viewers will make learning the life cycles fun for them to visualize animal life.
