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

Help us build our Maker and STEAM supplies with quality construction paper, hot glue to build a variety of structures, and tubs for water-based experiments and challenges.

These types of hands-on activities and challenges are shown to increase problem-solving skills and encourage out-of-the-box thinking.

This helps students succeed across the curriculum and apply these skills to math, language arts, science, and social studies. We will be creating projects that focus on 21st century skills, as well as projects to enrich our learning and give students hands on opportunities to practice different modes of learning.
