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

My classroom is especially designed for students with severe Autism Spectrum Disorder. Every student is different and requires individualized plans and accommodations to reach the highest level of success. My students rely heavily on visual aids to complete tasks throughout the school day.

My students are five- and six-year-old students who are on the autism spectrum, they enjoy learning and exploring.

They attend an offsite school that receives very little to no supplies. They deserve the appropriate tools needed to help facilitate learning, despite their attending school in a high-poverty, high-crime neighborhood. Students with Autism often become discouraged when facing academic and physical barriers. In my classroom, I like to promote an "I can" environment, instead of an "I can't."

My Project

My project will provide needed technology opportunities for the children in our school and show them that science and math are everywhere around them. My students need a laptop computer to assist them with this "Science Environmental" project. I want my students to be able to learn about science through technology. The portable laptop will be used at school and at home to create this project. I want my students to have opportunities to use technology, experiences they wouldn't otherwise have due to the lack of technology in their homes. I will use sustainable energy-themed units with our science school programs. My students deserve these opportunities.

Electricity is an imperative part of our daily lives, but many energy sources are damaging the environment, this is important for children to learn at an early age.

I plan to have my students read about innovations in alternative energy sources, they will work in collaborative groups to design and build a model of a system to generate energy. Each group will then have an opportunity to present their work in class. Next, the students will create an alternative energy design at home with someone who lives with them and keep data on energy used at home and ways to conserve energy. Finally, the activity will end with everyone discussing the importance of energy resources and what they did at home with their family and to conserve energy. In order to carry out this unit, my students need a computer to research various energy sources and how they might design a system to sustain energy.
