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 students inspire me. They are creative, thoughtful, and the sky's the limit for their imagination! They absolutely love learning to code, creating animations, and dialogue. Their projects are as unique and varied as the languages, cultures they represent.

Our students think outside the box to find solutions to the daily challenges they face, and each day they bravely take chances in order to grow both personally and academically.

Together, we hack, innovate, and create as we learn computer science together. The students are my inspiration!

My Project

As we return to in-person learning, basic supplies like paper to write on and markers to draw with will replace the online experience. Providing these supplies will support student creativity and hands-on prototyping in the computer science classroom. Paper towels and tissues will help us keep clean and care for our electronics.

Designing prototypes in the computer science classroom should not be limited by supplies, students' imaginations should be free to explore and redesign.

Designing a prototype is a trial and error process. Please help support our process, and bring students' imagination to life.
