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 Students

My students are unique learners who are gifted differently. They work hard to attain the skills they need for life beyond the classroom. They are becoming leaders and are growing academically and socially through individualized instruction and love. My students are special because they have to work harder to attain common goals others find easy. I love their willingness to try, make mistakes, and celebrate every small achievement. I love celebrating every milestone with my school children! We appreciate every donation and use items immediately! They will benefit from your generosity.

My Project

My students love LEGO bricks. Every day at recess they race to get to the one bin of LEGO bricks I have in my classroom. I need more LEGO bricks to allow more students an opportunity to explore and build with. This will provide them with opportunities to be creative. They love to use LEGO bricks for STEM activities. They use illustrations to build various structures and bridges.

LEGO bricks provide students with basic building blocks to be utilized during STEM, recess, and instruction.

I can't wait to see the look on their faces when we unwrap the new Creative LEGO Brick Sets and building plates. I will not have to limit the number of students who get to explore using the LEGO bricks.
