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 have the pleasure of teaching a group of very thoughtful and loving kids! They love STEM projects; anything hands on and simply being innovators. These kids are eager to come to school because it's where they have stability. Almost all of the students come from low-income families and receive free and reduced lunch.

Giving students the freedom of creativity through monthly projects.

The Maker machine will be used weekly to help students explore their creativity by creating monthly projects. The adhesive paper will be used to help move vinyl from the workstation to project.
