Hooray! This project is fully funded

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 Project

STEM materials such as LEGOs, straws, play dough, dominoes, pipe cleaners, and others like this will help me to create a fun, hands-on, and engaging learning experience for my first graders. With these materials, my students will be able to put their creativity to work. This would be ideal for early finishers, centers, fine motor practice, behavior incentives, and more. These STEM materials will be great for kinesthetic learners, spatial learners, and logical learners who will love exploring the different possibilities for the building materials as they try to construct challenging structures. Knowing how creative my first graders are, I know they will love this!
