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

Please help me give my students STEM items, such as LEGO bricks, magnetic tiles, design items, STEM building blocks and other items. These kinds of projects foster an environment where the sky’s the limit. If students can imagine it, they can try to achieve it. The STEM building blocks will let the children create and work on projects together.

Students will gain skills such as leadership, time management, and communication, which are essential skills for real-world projects as well.

Student projects foster self-motivation and accountability that will benefit them both in future academic pursuits and in their adult careers. These kinds of class assignments allow students to learn not only their own strengths, but also how to work together with classmates who have different strengths toward a common goal.
