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

The Questioneers books inspire critical thinking and creative research. This year, my students have worked hard to build their questioning skills and have become researchers. Help me expand our class resources to continue this growth.

With this project, I will create a STEM table with exploration to encourage learning and student discourse.

The Questioneers books will serve as science inspiration. The Pixel Bricks will encourage creative expression and the math tools will provide hands-on learning experiences for difficult math concepts including addition and subtraction with regrouping.

Please support my classroom by funding this project and help me as I work to improve the future...one thinker at a time.
