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 requested a variety of STEM games to offer to my students when they are in centers or when they finish their work. I would love to have STEM games to offer them that they are eager to use. When students play these 'games' they don't even realize how much beneficial they are! It helps them with their problem-solving skills, their critical thinking, and reasoning skills! For many students, these STEM brain-games motivate them to complete their classwork so they can use them. I love seeing students excited to do something that will challenge them. In addition, I requested variety mixes of candies to use as rewards for achievement and behavior which helps the overall classroom climate improve!
