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 Students

Fantastic kids who love engineering, coding, and supporting each other. They're a great group of students who are practicing personalized learning, or one-size-fits-one learning.

They take ownership of their learning and track their progress on goals they set for themselves.

My Project

These STEM projects will be used for Project-Based Learning. This helps them develop creative problem-solving skills that will help them throughout their time in school and careers.

These activities are great!

For example, the circuit board activities will help them learn about voltage and how electricity functions, the project book will help me get ideas for projects we can create as a team, the earth science kit will help them learn about chemistry and geology, the marble run will help them create projects with gravity in them.

This will be a makerspace they'll never forget, and will inspire them to create!
