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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students must keep up with the latest advancements in education to spark an interest in science. STEM hands-on science rock kits will provide my students with thoughtful activities and creative thinking. The rock polishing set will enhance their colorful displays of STEM activities.

The resources in this project will increase my students' grade-level STEM skills and increase their academic achievement.

Students learn best by using their critical thinking skills to make sense, make connections, and explore their world. From hands-on, inquiry-based investigations to math, literacy, art, and engineering differentiation STEM activities will be the foundation connecting home and school.
