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

As you may know, I have been working aty school for the past nine years. I’m excited to share that I’ll be moving to third grade this coming school year! With this transition, I want to provide my students with hands-on, engaging STEM bins to encourage creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. These bins will be used for morning work, early finishers, and STEM exploration time. Your support will help me create a classroom environment where students can build, experiment, and grow into confident problem-solvers. Thank you for your support!
