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 first-grade classroom is buzzing with anticipation as we prepare to dive into hands-on learning experiences using Magna-Tiles, Marble Runs, and wooden building blocks.

Together, we can inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, and problem solvers.

With your support, we'll be able to provide sets of Magna-tiles, Marble Runs, and wooden building blocks, unlocking a world of possibilities for exploration, creativity, and innovation. These STEM materials will play a vital role in fostering creativity, problem-solving skills, and critical thinking among our young learners.

Thank you for investing in the future of our students and helping us cultivate a passion for STEM learning. Let's build a brighter tomorrow, one innovative creation at a time!
