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 are very creative and would greatly benefit from having building tools to inspire their engineering ability. This Lego building block set will be used during stem activities as well as recess time. Lego building blocks will help develop students' critical developmental skills.

These Lego building blocks are where math, science, and creativity meet.

These building blocks will also help students will their fine motor skills so that they can build 3-D designs. There are endless creative structures that students will be able to design and might peak their future in engineering and design.
