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 teach 12 incredible students who have mild to moderate needs. They enjoy building and exploring. STEM bins are a great way for my students to build skills in science technology engineering and math.

These STEM bins will be used on a daily as part of the math center and free choice where the students get to explore, engage with peers, and have fun creating.

Creating STEM bins using Legos and Playstix will provide students with the opportunity to collaborate, problem-solving, critical thinking, and innovation during play.

These STEM will be essential in a class of explorers, builders, and thinkers who are in TK, Kinder, and 1st grade.
