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 upcoming first graders I know are going to love to explore, build, and solve problems with their hands and minds. I want to create a STEM corner in our classroom by filling our 10 empty cubbies with engaging toys and tools that promote creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking.

These requested STEM materials will give my students the opportunity to explore their, build, and experiment during independent and group activities.

With your help, this space will become a hands on learning hub where they can develop problem solving skills and a love for all things STEM all while having fun.
