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

As a Title 1 teacher, my journey every school year is to provide my students with the necessary resources needed for them to have a successful school year. My kindergarten students are a group of students who enjoy learning through exploration and hands-on lessons.

My goal for this project is to expose their young minds to a world of innovation, creativity, and inquiry through STEAM.

The requested resources will be utilized to introduce my students to resources that will engage them to explore "how things work". They will be able to create and apply their critical thinking skills to generate projects that will focus on STEAM.
