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 Students

Students at my school are full of energy and love to learn! They are so intrigued and engaged in their learning, and are so happy to be back in school this year! I teach in Waukegan, IL. The student population is diverse, and we do our best to meet the specific needs of each child.

Using a variety of research-based methods, we meet each child at the level they are at, and then provide specific supports and learning strategies to monitor the students' growth.

It is so amazing to see students' excitement for learning!

My Project

This quarter in STEM we are working on the Engineer Design Process where students are planning, designing, and creating. Additional materials are needed as we plan to create musical instruments, wagons for traveling west, paper bat wings that glide, boats that float, and ways to launch marshmallows.

Students will use tape, craft sticks, paper, straws and other materials to work through the six steps of the Engineer Design Process, while learning to plan, problem solve, imagine, create, and improve their designs and thinking.

These materials will allow students to become engineers in STEM class!
