Celebrating 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
We are an inner city, High-5 through eighth grade elementary school in a very high poverty area of a large metropolitan school district. Many students have their first experiences with science during their time with me. One unique aspect to our school is that we serve a large population of Somalians that are new to our country.
The majority of my students are English language learners from both East Africa and Latin America.
Our free lunch status is ninety-eight percent or higher. My teaching position is one of a resource or specialist teacher who serves over 650 students throughout the school year. One of my personal joys is teaching these students year after year as they transition through their elementary grade levels.
My Project
The LEGO STEM kits will give our primary grade students the opportunity to uncover and discover science topics using hands on LEGO kits.. These STEM kits are just the tool needed to engage young students in rigorous learning. LEGO learning kits re also a great way for students to share and work together.
LEGO STEM kits are a learning tool that gives our students a special hands on opportunity to learn about our communities, transportation systems, future careers and how we design our cities.
Learning with LEGOs is always a fun engaging and memory making activity that students continually look forward to.
