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 Project
Although I teach reading, I will always have a love for science in my heart. The school day doesn't allow me to get too deep into any science lessons, but an experiment every now and then and some stem bins are sure to satisfy that itch.
The great thing about reading is that it can be cross taught with any subject, and science is no exception!
I am asking for kinetic sand to add to our indoor play stem bins that are used on Friday mornings and during indoor recess. I am also looking to do a fun science day where students read and analyze a passage about slime, then get to make some! I can't wait to make this idea come to life.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
