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.
"Time for Science!" and next thing you hear out of my class is a loud, "OH YEAH!". Science is fun and can be a very exciting subject, when it involves experiments and hands on experiences! Learning scientifically creates an energizing and creative classroom!
My students are talented and creative!
They also have very difficult lives. Unfortunately, they are in a school where over 80% of our school population lives at or below the poverty level. Getting their daily needs met can be a challenge. It is a difficult task to teach students to love school because living in the city is quite a challenging experience. I am working hard to mold my students to be the great thinkers and inventors of tomorrow. I do this by allowing my students to experiment and explore scientifically. You should see some of the interesting and surprising experiments they have come up with! Unfortunately, we have no budget to allow for luxury items such as consumable materials and science books to enrich of science education.
My Project
With these materials I will be able to create a science center where my students can work in partnership to explore different science topics. Topics like weather, space, states of matter, light, and much much more! They will be able to explore many different areas of science, not just in a text book. The world of Biology, Physic, Earth Science and Chemistry can now be made available with these materials. They will also have a science listening center where they have interact with literature with a variety of scientific topics. We can and will be scientists!
By providing us with your support you will be assisting me in creating active and creative students who have a love for learning.
They will read, experiment, write stories, add,subtract and measure, research and explore but most importantly,they will learn that someone cares enough to give them all that they need to succeed.
