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

The materials I have requested will definitely increase the excitement in my students and help bring the world of exploration to them. I adore my students because of their excitement and their wonderful imagination. These materials will build upon their enthusiasm to learning about the world around them. The Stem kits will help them explore technology, motors, electronics and how things work. Researching concepts on their own, that have been taught to them will come naturally. The eagerness of my students exploring and using their imagination is my primary goal, besides making learning fun.
