This project is fully funded
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
I serve as a Future Ready Librarian at a bilingual Title I school. We have 730+ students, ranging from kindergarten to sixth grade, with over 90% coming from low-income backgrounds. STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) projects are examples of project-based learning. STEM projects guide students in strengthening their inquiry, communication, and critical thinking skills. These activities also develops the student's creativity, collaboration and teamwork skills, confidence, innovation, motivation, perseverance, and risk-taking.
My scholars need access to a variety of Makedo Cardboard Construction STEM building kits and activities in the Makerspace.
They love taking things apart and putting them together, so they need new resources like the Makedo Cardboard Construction STEM building kits and tools to support their project-based learning activities and lessons.
To help my students complete their assigned STEM project tasks for the upcoming year, they need access to a well-stocked Makerspace. They need a variety of activities so they can explore and satisfy their curiosity about the world around them! They need the Makedo Cardboard Construction STEM building kits, connectors, and tools to use with their learning activities.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
