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

My kindergarten engineers love to learn and explore. What better way than to connect their learning with STEM manipulatives that represent stories they are familiar with. My class is filled with students who learn in a variety of ways.

These STEM kits will help my children discover the STEM in their favorite fairy tales, inspiring them to explore each challenging situation until they find a solution.

How fun will it be to bring the stories to life by constructing different setting from the books?

My students will engineer happier endings to fairy tales!
