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 Students

We are a STEM-based charter school in Naples, Florida with 74% of our students receiving free or reduced-price lunches. The families we serve really want what is best for their kids and trust me as their teacher to help make those decisions. The students in my classroom are very loving and caring individuals.

"It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves, that will make them successful human beings." -Ann Landers

My students are passionate, eccentric, beautiful, intelligent, and all-around amazing. When you look into their eyes, you know that they are eager to consume knowledge. These students appreciate each and every day that they spend in the classroom because they know that they are going to use their minds in the most creative and innovative ways possible.

My Project

My students need a set of Carson-Dellosa STEM Challenges Learning Cards to stimulate their brains. These cards are ready to challenge all skill sets and reinforce the power of WHY.

We love to READ and to encourage their love for Reading, Science, and Engeering we need books!

We would love to have the following in our classroom library:

Sofia Valdez, Future Prez The Qustioneers Series, What Should Danny Do? (The Power to Choose Series), Have You Thanked an Inventor Today?, Rosie Revere and the Raucous Riveters: The Questioneers Book #1, Little Engineers and the Zoey and Sassafras Science Books 1-6 Pack.

Because we are so active and love the hands-on STEM projects we need materials to build, expand and grow. To make models of our inventions we need Sargent Art Dough, Play-Doh Slime 30 Can Pack - Assorted Rainbow Colors and Monkey Foam.

We need glitter and neon paint pens to let our work shine as much as we do! Colored masking tape to hold it all together.

My class needs a Creative Magic Bouncy Balls kit so they can create their own crystal power balls as an end of the year project.

Please help us get the supplies we need so that we may go above and beyond what is expected of us!
