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 are curious, creative, and full of untapped potential—they thrive on discovery and love diving into hands-on learning experiences. As a STEAM-focused classroom, we believe in fostering a sense of wonder and innovation that will prepare them for the challenges of the future.

The solar-powered STEM kits will teach them about renewable energy and engineering concepts, while the magnetic force lab will spark their understanding of the invisible forces shaping our world.

The magnifiers will allow them to explore the fine details of science, from examining the smallest particles to observing the world up close, while wearing lab coats. These resources will empower them to think critically, solve problems, and dream big.

With these tools, our classroom will transform into a hub of creativity and exploration, where my students can imagine, build, and learn. Your generosity will make these exciting opportunities possible—help us ignite a love for STEAM in the next generation of thinkers and innovators.
