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

What are classroom basics in a technology-focused Computer Science classroom that is home to the First Tech Challenge school Robotics Team?

Well, we need Durable Floor Marking Tape to outline the competition space for our competitive robot arena to test our engineering.

We will use the 25-foot Audio Extension Adapter Cable to bypass the sad onboard speakers for our projector and connect to our digital amplifier and hi-fi speakers.

We will use the InnoGear Mic Stand with Weighted Round Base to allow our Robotics tournament annoucer speak with their hands free (so they can hold a notebook).

We will use the Heavy Duty Folding Dolly to transport our Robotics gear between events.

We will use Kids Scissors, Glue Sticks, and #2 Pencils, Pre-sharpened to keep track of our designs in our Engineering Notebooks.

We will use EOOUTMesh Zipper Pouches to keep team toolkits organized so our supplies don't get lost.

Lastly, we will use our Gray Travel Carry Drawstring Headphones Pouches and the Acoustic Guitar Strings to care for the in-classroom instruments that we play to unwind from the stress of competitive robotics.
