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

Help our students elevate their learning by providing hands-on science experiments that spark curiosity, challenge critical thinking, and enhance analytical skills. We need potting soil, shaving cream, baking soda, and more!

As educators, it’s our mission to ensure every student has the confidence and opportunity to pursue their dreams.

A well-rounded education, grounded in literacy, writing, math, social studies, and science, is essential to helping young learners grow into thoughtful, capable individuals.

In science, I want to foster a sense of wonder and curiosity. These simple, hands-on materials will open the door to exploration, allowing students to ask questions, make predictions, and discover new concepts through engaging experiments.

Additionally, the Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will allow me to purchase high-quality, visually rich resources that support and scaffold learning for our English language learners. These tools will make lessons more accessible, engaging, and effective for all students.

Thank you for supporting our classroom and helping us build a foundation for lifelong learning. Your generosity makes it possible for our students to soar.
