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

My fourth grade students love to explore and create new things, and love when it’s time for our lab day. They enjoy the hands-on learning and activities during our lessons. These STEM Science Kits when engaged students to explore how to work together and become problem solvers. The kits will be used on Fridays when we end our lesson in order to create a positive and fun experience.

My students love to share and talk about how they are able to make their experiments happen.

This will definitely make our simple machine and weather unit more enjoyable.
