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

Supporting this project will help keep our students able to organize their project materials for their various project based learning and steam activities. My students throughout the year complete various projects from building robotic hands to clay sculpture and everything in between. One of the biggest challenges was being able to store these projects without them being damaged, also having a space to store the extra material for next year. Throughout the year, my students make/create some of the amazing projects that surprise every one but sadly they at times get tossed away or lost.

By having these bins I will be able to store more of their projects to create an end of the year portfolio to show off all the amazing things that they have done throughout the year!
