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 am a Teacher Librarian at an Equity Focus School in Charlotte NC. My students really enjoy the chance to be creative and these new STEM materials will do just that.

I have selected various types of STEM building materials that allow my students the opportunity to bring their visions to life.

They also love that they have the chance to build independently, with a partner, or with a small group of classmates. The STEM kits include things with wheels, items for bracelet making, and more goodies. Thank you for considering our STEM project.
