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 Spring I am planning to begin STEM activities in our school computer lab.

Students will love documenting and displaying their processes on a STEM themed bulletin board.

Having color copies will elevate things from blah to yeah! The school can follow their process as well as learn with them along the way.

Once our STEM projects are complete we can travel between classrooms using the metal cart, demonstrating what we have learned and others can not only take a closer look but get their hands in on the fun.
