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

Our classroom has a wide range of diverse learners and individual needs. We live in Southern California. I seek to create authentic and meaningful learning experiences for my digital learners. My students are thankful for all that they are given, and appreciative of their education. They are inspired by technology and creative experiences, but we have a limited supply of innovative technology in our school.

My 21st century learners need exposure to cutting-edge technology, so that they can be successful in learning in our digital world.

Anytime I integrate technology into their learning, my students are engaged and excited! They deserve the best learning environment with innovative resources to help them succeed.

My Project

I want to design a learning environment that challenges students to think critically and problem-solve. My goal is help our students understand technology and be prepared to 'keep up' with others in college or their chosen career. I believe that this project will help me fulfill these tasks.

Using this 3D printer, students will complete critical thinking projects and have a vivid understanding of the newest technologies.

I hope to use the 3D printer for many projects, including Inventions that could solve a real-world problem, fossils, and modern book reports. We look forward to discovering through the use of technology!
