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

Masking tape, Scotch tape, and tape dispensers are essential tools in a STEM class because they enable students to quickly and effectively assemble, secure, and prototype their engineering projects. These tapes provide a simple, cost-effective way to bond materials, hold parts in place, and make adjustments without the need for complex tools or equipment. Tape dispensers make the process even more efficient by allowing students to easily access and cut the tape as needed, keeping projects moving smoothly. Together, these supplies help students experiment, iterate, and bring their creative engineering ideas to life by making their projects literally "stick" together.
