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

We have a maker space that inherited an old, non-functioning mobile Smartboard that we would love to upcycle into a marble run station for our students. The room will be accessible to students during lunch recess under adult supervision and will be part of our rotating centers.

The addition of the marble run station to our room will give our students more options to be creative and excited about using the room.

Students will have challenges with this board functioning as a mobile marble run station

We are asking for the kits and materials that are magnetic for our project to come alive.
