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

Each one of my students brings a unique personality to our classroom. They love hands on activities that allow their creativity to flow!

Additionally, I have a couple non-verbal students in my class this year that would benefit from different ways of expressing themselves.

STEM activities allow my students to thrive. They are more invested in their learning. They love starting their day with STEM activities, as well as using the STEM materials to help regulate their minds and bodies on days where they are struggling. STEM for the win!
