Celebrating 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.
I have an energetic, inquisitive and enthusiastic group of 26 five and six-year-olds in the inner city of Rhode Island. They are eager to learn to read and write and count to 100! My students are so appreciative of each other and all that we do every day. They are culturally diverse and enjoy sharing their own unique experiences with the class. We learn from each other every day. My school is working hard to build community among families and staff and we have a safe, respectful environment.
My Project
My students absolutely love to participate in hands-on, cooperative, and engaging activities all day long and especially during math and science! This set of sturdy translucent magnetic blocks will provide countless opportunities for the children to explore geometry concepts... as they build! They are plastic tiles with magnets built right in, so they stick together from every side - as kids explore symmetry, area and perimeter and more. I would love for my students to have to opportunity to learn these concepts with Magna-Tiles along with the Builder Z Challenge Kit because I believe together they will really bring the learning to life! This hundred piece set of Magna-Tiles with five shapes in five colors and 220 piece STEM challenge kit would both be wonderful and much appreciated additions to our ever growing STEM / Maker Space Center and would be truly treasured year after year!
