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

I am seeking your support in acquiring toys for our STEM station that can promote learning through tactile exploration and creativity. These toys will play a crucial role in engaging our students in hands-on activities that promote both mathematical and scientific thinking. By incorporating sensory elements into our STEM station, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of concepts such as counting collections and building structures.

Sensory toys are known for making learning a dynamic and immersive experience for our learners.

This sensory approach not only caters to diverse learning styles but also encourages experimentation and problem-solving skills in a supportive and engaging environment.

Your contribution to our STEM station by providing sensory toys would greatly enrich our kinder kiddos. By offering these resources, you would help create a vibrant learning space where my students can build, create, and discover the joy of STEM through hands-on exploration. Your support is deeply appreciated, and we are excited about the positive impact it will have on our students' educational journey.
