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

I love how imaginative and eager to learn my students are, especially when they’re given the chance to explore with their hands and minds. They thrive in environments that encourage creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration, and our library makerspace gives them just that.

The craft supplies will help students express themselves through art, build fine motor skills, and create projects they can proudly share.

The puzzle materials will challenge them to think critically, solve problems, and work together as a team. These resources will bring new energy to our makerspace and support meaningful, hands-on learning experiences for all.
