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 love how my students approach every challenge with curiosity, creativity, and joy. They’re natural problem-solvers who thrive when learning is active, hands-on, and full of opportunities to explore. The domino kits will help them discover cause and effect, motion, and design thinking through fun chain reactions. The IQ Builder sets will spark their innovation and encourage teamwork as they build imaginative structures. The Bridge Builders kit will deepen their understanding of physics and structure while promoting critical thinking. These tools will empower my students to grow as confident, curious STEM learners. Thank you for making this possible!
