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 are a group of curious, imaginative risk-takers. They would love to have more materials that will help them explore the world of engineering. They will use the building supplies to complete building challenges.

Materials like Legos and magnetic tiles will help my students bring their ideas to life.

Students will be able to problem solve and work on their collaboration skills in order to complete different building challenges. Having a variety of resources at their disposal makes it engaging for all the students who participate because everyone is able to find something that brings their idea to life.
