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 Students

I have an eager bunch of ELL and special education 4th graders in my classroom. 100% of my students receive free breakfast and lunch. My students do not have the opportunity to travel to our science museum. I want for them to experience science with hands on activities. I love that all of my students are unique in their own way.

My students are special because they are motivated to learn everything I have to teach them this year!

They are bright, wonderful students, and have so much potential.They are excited to learn and to do many science projects.

I'm excited to see them grow academically and personally. I love my little champions! Thank you for your help.

My Project

My students are eager to learn. But as we know, not all students learn the same. Some students need to have the hands-on experience in order to learn!

Having this Electricity Kit will help my students understand how electricity is created.

I cannot wait to see their faces when I introduce the science lesson and we actually have the materials for them to use.

I know they will be so happy, but not only them, my future students will also benefit from this generous donation.

Thank you so much for considering donating to my classroom. My students and I really appreciate it.
