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 Students
I teach a diverse range of seventh graders. I have students who require remediation as well as those who need enrichment.
My students are incredibly motivated and persistent in their learning, especially in science.
Even during these difficult times, it is my goal to provide top-quality instruction that will meet the needs of my diverse learners.
My Project
This refrigerator will be used to preserve and keep items cold for science labs. Several of our science experiments require cold water. For example, when studying how temperature affects the diffusion of molecules and how external temperature might affect internal temperature. Additionally, some of my labs require food items such as onions and milk. The refrigerator will enable me to store these items in the classroom for the week.
In an era where college and career readiness is a prominent factor in the teaching and learning process, STEM education is becoming more and more important.
I know that my students will achieve greater learning outcomes, given access to 21st-century tools and content that will encourage them to think deeply about studying health and life science concepts.
