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

STEAM is new to my k-4 students this year. Now more than ever, students need to learn to think outside the box when it comes to problem solving.

I want to make sure the students enjoy being in STEAM and can feel confident enough to be creative and take on challenges.

Through the resources I am trying to purchase like, task cards to come up with creative solutions, lego building challenges, and other exciting resources, I look forward to seeing how all students k-4 put their brains to the test.
