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

Hello! I am a second-grade teacher, and I'm excited to introduce my students to the wonders of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). Our classroom is full of curious minds eager to learn and grow through hands-on experiences that help bring our lessons to life.

By providing engaging STEM kits and healthy snacks, we can inspire my students to become problem-solvers and critical thinkers.

These are skills that will serve them throughout their lives. Second grade is a perfect time to introduce STEM concepts in ways that feel like play. STEM kits give students the chance to build, create, experiment, and explore, laying a strong foundation for future success in these critical fields.
