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 students and I have been given an opportunity of a lifetime! For the first time ever, our school will be part of a Soap Box Derby Race! Through this journey, we will document from beginning to end how we build our soap box. Students will be part of the STEM engineering process to help build their soap box. With the use of the iPad, we will be able to record the lengthy process of creating a soap box. Students will be able to relive these memories for years to come.
