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

This year, I am fortunate to teach a fantastic group of kindergarteners. My kindergarteners are so eager to learn every day. STEM materials are exciting to them. Therefore, I am requesting STEM materials to engage my students in a fun/hands-on way. Through STEM activities, students practice critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork.

This new learning style for kindergarteners helps increase innovation and encourages creativity.

As a teacher, I want my students to exceed their expectations. I aim to encourage them to do more than they think they can. With Play-Doh, building blocks, fidgets, and STEM toys, students will be amazed at how they feel about problems and how they solve them. They are so bright in many ways, and I want to encourage them daily. Thank you for reading!
