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

I plan on using the Osmo Genius Starter Kits and tablets to foster my students fine motor skills, problem solving, social skills, science and S.T.E.A.M through hands-on interactive games and collaboration.

My goals for this project are for students to have fun in a safe environment and practice their technology usage through hands-on activities that promote S.T.E.A.M and literacy.

Also to further their creativity.

My students are the youngest learners and deserve to have activities that engage them and help them further develop their skills in different areas of their development.
