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 will be able to start everyday by walking into our classroom full of STEM activities, like Brain Flakes and magnetic tiles. They will be able to socialize, play, create and learn Science, Technology, Engineering and Math skills through our Morning Bins/Tactile Bins.

By providing Morning Bins/Tactile Bins full of STEM toys my students will learn to play and create everyday as soon as they start their day.

By providing these materials, it will help my students learn collaborate skills, share through partner and group work.

This will create and foster an inclusive environment where students are able to create, learn and play from the start of their day.
