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 are incredible and this project will help students with a more hands-on learning experience. They love to learn and project-based learning is essential to the growth and exploration of students as they learn about the world around them. The hands-on science activity centers will allow students to explore, investigate, and learn science concepts in meaningful and realistic ways in my classroom.

The activity tubs will help my second-grade students begin to become scientists actively engaging in the scientific process while working together.

In my classroom, the activity tubs will help my second-grade students begin to become scientists actively engaging them in the scientific process. We would use these supplies throughout the entire school year and maybe even create some future engineers!
