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 project is to help my students with STEM exposure. Our class was nominated to be the first STEM class in the grade.

Our fifth grade for this school year will be using STEM, computer science, and EIE.

We have to support our students with materials that will help build, design, and create materials that they can use in the classroom and at home. The Glowforge will allow each child to have an opportunity to create something that they desire. Thank you so much for your help and support with this project!
