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

Technology has a great impact on our students educational experiences for sure, but using their built in computer is important too!

Hands on experiences with engagement will allow for experimentations and discovery.

These items will allow for the free flowing creativity and application of what they already know and can discover things they did not. Cooperation and collaboration with peers will expand their social skills as well. The mix of games, manual robotics, art, and puzzles will have something for everyone in the class. This will be a wonderful addition to our class.
