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 are an eager group who are ready to explore new concepts. They are working on critical thinking skills. My students will be in small enrichment groups in which they will explore natural disasters as well as architecture structures and how the structures can stand up to these natural disasters in the real world .

They will also be using some of the materials donated to explore coding and programing for a mouse maze.

These enrichment materials will help them explore questions that they have about the real world.
