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 love figuring how things work. They come to school excited for the days activities. I want to help keep their minds excited by creating lessons that call to students curiosity.

The STEM experiment kits I am requesting in this project will spark my students curiosity and creativity by allowing them to use their hands to solve real life problems in a joyful way.

We know that students learn through building and having experiences. Hands on activities are essential for students to figure out how machines works, to plan and engineer practical solutions for everyday problems. Please help fund our classroom! I am looking forward to seeing my students seeing themselves as mathematicians, engineers and problem solving leaders.
