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.

"Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishment toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results." — Andrew Carnegie
This quote has inspired me as an educator.
I work with an amazing group of children who are eager to learn. I enjoy seeing the excitement in their eyes when we get ready to complete a science lab. My students come from diverse backgrounds which makes them unique. Many of my students come from low-income families; however, they are the best kids on the planet.
Pursuing an occupation in STEM or becoming engaged with STEM at a young age will open countless doors for a lifetime. As an educator, I feel it is my responsibility to provide my students with every possible exciting opportunity to learn about the fields.
My students need a fun and interactive way to learn about working together. This will give them the opportunity to strengthen their critical-thinking and creative problem-solving skills and reflect on their entry’s performance and what they could do to improve it. A Teachers Pay Teachers card gives me the opportunity to purchase instructional materials that will provide my students with resources and tools to be successful during STEM Class
Nearly all students from low‑income households
