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

Every morning, we start off the day with a pep talk about how we are the future engineers, doctors, and scientists of America. My students get excited and pumped about being at school as soon as they walk through those doors!

My students are lovely little light bulbs who come from low socioeconomic households.

Most of their parents work multiple jobs just to make ends meet. My lovely little light bulbs need many sparks to help them become well-rounded whole little people whose light bulbs shine bright.

My Project

I am exposing my students to as many STEM and CODE activities as possible. I want them to know how powerful (and fun!) science and computer programming can be! My students need KNEX building sets, STEM creator kits, and building activities. These materials will be used in a STEM center fashion where groups of future little engineers will gather and explore these amazing materials! My students will get into small groups and will work together to build and explore each new STEM center. They may construct bridges and towers while exploring each shape and each mechanical concept. Through using these materials, they will strengthen their math, science, and social skills!

My students do not have access to many educational experiences outside of the classroom.

While they are in my classroom, I want them to be exposed to many different facets of life. Learning how to use science, math, and engineering will help them become well rounded bright little light bulbs. These students are our future, and they deserve to have some exciting STEM activities! I want to inspire and educate to the best of my ability.
