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 students love creating with LEGO bricks. I am asking for these LEGO kits so our students can come to the STEAM Lab and have their own individual LEGO set to build.

LEGOs can be a fun and educational way to develop many skills needed for life.

These kits open up connections to creative storytelling and technology. I can capture their imaginations with LEGOs. The containers and carts will be used to store the LEGO pieces. Our students have a passion for exploring STEAM-related topics using these LEGOs. Our STEAM Lab has been renovated and our students want to display these creations during our STEM to STEAM Expo.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
