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

My students need a shelf to organize their discovery materials. Throughout the school year, we explore STEM topics like simple machines, tubes, tunnels, and signs, and we require a shelf to store these changing materials in the classroom.

Having a shelf to organize the materials and a place that is safe and accessible to the students will create an environment open to learning and exploring.

We are looking forward to being able to display the materials and toys that get our youngest learners questioning and exploring the ever-changing world of STEM.
