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

In the middle of a home project, have you ever stopped to look for a tool and discovered that you do not have it and had to run to the home improvement store? When it's essential to learn what tools are and how to use them right, having the right tools on hand would make the creation in the classroom more productive.

With the right tools, you can work faster, do your job better, and make fewer mistakes.

Having the right tools can help you learn more about your job. To do well, you need the proper tools. When you have the right tools, you can do more. Not only can the wrong tools make the job harder, but they can also be dangerous.

I want to show my students the interplay that exists between engineering, scientific inquiry, human activity, and the natural world. My students are able to dream about projects and then have the means to design and construct those projects because the supplies are provided.
