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

STEM is the way of the future and we know we have the future in our classroom! Hands on manipulatives help give students ways to construct physical models in math and science. We will use the STEM bins in many different learning areas of our classrooms. They will be put to use in independent practice, station rotations, small groups rotations, tutoring, as well as partner centers.

These STEM bins will aid students in being able to grasp necessary science and math concepts to better become better scientists, engineers and mathematicians.

These STEM bins also give us the confidence that our students will be able to create many spectacular projects . Hands on manipulatives and working while learning experiences can not be beat for our younger learners.
