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

I want to light up the minds of my student artists with the knowledge of circuits.

With Chibitronics LED stickers they can create artwork that lights up!

The art room at our school is a warm environment for igniting my students minds. My classroom has students eager to try something new with their creative talents. This is not a project they would easily be able to do at home due to economic restraints. It takes some engineering skills to figure out how electricity, circuits and art can come together. Under my leadership and with your financial help, I can share this knowledge with others.
