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

I teach biological life science classes and physical science classes, incorporating hands-on, project-based learning in my classroom. I also include technology, helping students develop 21st-century presentation skills and financial literacy. My types contain STEM and STEAM skills for engineering. Additionally, we focus on social-emotional learning, teaching essential life skills, racial and social justice, and financial literacy. My students are a diverse group of enthusiastic learners who enjoy applying creativity and hands-on models to their learning.

My students need giant microbes and technology resources to learn about life science and biology, enhancing classroom instruction and learning.

These classroom essentials and other materials will enhance student understanding and research, promote critical thinking, encourage inclusivity, and make learning more engaging and fun. We will use these resources as samples and examples to learn essential concepts and gain further understanding. This project promotes financial literacy and requires meaningful research, planning, and organization.

These resources will enhance their understanding and research, making learning more engaging and fun. The device will be used for design and 3D modeling and to create educational learning visuals. Students can research scientists and their diverse contributions to innovation. The items will be used for science labs, vocabulary, and activities. These supplies will create visual examples of important learning concepts, and the research technology resources will provide additional information beyond instruction. These will also be fantastic communication tools for promoting inclusivity. Additionally, we will have access to STEAM materials for better access to technology in our classroom environment.
