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

The students in my class are inquisitive, intelligent and driven individuals. Although this is a math classroom, they are so curious about the world around them. In order to quench their thirst for knowledge, I created this project so that I can incorporate more STEM opportunities in our classroom.

My students are dedicated to their education and deserve every opportunity to soak up as much knowledge as possible.

I want to supply them with the confidence they need to pursue their dreams and explore endless opportunities through STEM.

With your help, I know that all of my students will move mountains with the items from this project. Thank you for helping us!
