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

Learning by doing has always proven the most effective way to engage students in difficult topics. In addition to hands-on activities, using manipulatives to help students focus in class, these resources serve a double purpose! I hope that our students enjoy the activities learning about force, motion and gravity.

These HOT WHEELS cars and tracks will be used to demonstrate various physics examples and help kiddos focus in class!

Additionally, using these little cars to help some students focus in the classroom is an added bonus!

Thank you in advance for your consideration and support
