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

This project is for a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) center for our 1st grade class. As students return to school, I wanted to upgrade our STEM area so students have more storage and a larger area to allow for their creativity.

These selected items will help us upgrade our STEM center area.

I am asking for a storage bench to serve as a STEM area and storage for our STEM bins. The pillows and rug will give students the comfort to work on floor as they design and create using our STEM bins. With your help I hope to create an environment for my 1st graders to explore, create, and thrive. Thank you for so much for supporting my students during these uncertain times.
