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 this year will be learning all about physical science such as magnetism and matter. These resources would greatly support them in their learning.

My goal is to provide students with hands-on resources to help enrich their learning in the classroom and explore the concepts they are learning.

I work at a Title 1 school so my students do not always have access to the newest and best resources. Having these hands-on resources would mean the world to them so they can begin to explore the world of STEAM and all of the possibilities that come with it!
