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

Students have been learning about mixtures and solutions in their science classes. So what better way to end the semester than to make gingerbread houses? I am a dyslexia therapist in a low-income school. I plan on reading the book, The Plan for the Gingerbread House: A STEM Engineering Story to my students. I found out last week that not one of my current students has ever made a gingerbread house, and I would like to remedy that issue at our Christmas party. Please help me make a holiday memory!
