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

In an era where the world is evolving at an exponential pace, nurturing a passion for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) among our students is of paramount importance. Your kind donation to this project will enable me to take significant strides toward this goal.

I have requested a gift card from Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT), which will allow me to purchase a vast array of high-quality STEM resources and materials.

These materials will be put to great use in my classrooms, enhancing the learning experiences of my students.

The materials purchased from TPT will allow me to bring engaging hands-on activities that promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills to my classrooms. These activities will make STEM subjects come alive for my students.
