Celebrating 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
Kindergarten has changed so much throughout the years and sadly education has slowly removed pretend play. Which means at times less time to work together and use their imagination!
With STEM though it helps with imagination, engineering, collaboration, communication skills, problem solving, and so much more!
I would love to obtain plant pots, soil, compost bin, and plants for my students to plant and learn about everything plants and caring for our environment! They would learn about botanist, farmers, and being a scientist! Sadly, sometimes with these things fruit flies or little flies come around and want to have insect traps, please! I want to be able to store our STEM materials that we already have too and storage bins are very much needed to keep materials organized!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
