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 am looking to add more STEM activities to my classroom. I have a group of twenty-four kinesthetic learners. They are very creative and enjoy building various structures and projects. I work in a very diverse community and our school is a Title I school. We really appreciate any help we can get to help buy these items for the classroom STEM activities really promote and foster creativity. Also, some students thrive in a kinesthetic environment and items like these really help outside-the-box thinkers. Let's help students dream big to become builders, pilots, and engineers, etc.
