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

Our new school year is about to start and we need to replenish supplies that will help us all year with our STEM projects.

We are asking for spiral binding coils to put our STEM journals together for the year.

We also need contact paper, command hooks, magnetic building toys, and pots for planting. These resources will help us with our STEM centers. The students develop a lot of language while using magnetic toy building sets. They problem-solve and work together to build towers. They will be working on their engineering standards. The pots will be used for planting herbs that we hope will attract butterflies. The contact paper will be used for the STEM corner display. This display will be up throughout the year to display ongoing work.
