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

These items will help us create a student-centered Robotics First Tech Challenge classroom. It is our first year, we have five teams, our robotics students, in addition to class periods, the teams dedicate their lunch and after school hours to work on their robots. Students need snacks and a comfortable organized environment (Rev Robotics kits have over 1400 parts) as they work and prepare to compete at our May 26th in-house Robotics Challenge. The 3D printer will allow the students to design and print out the robot parts needed to engineer the robots they planned.

In addition, our school has been doing Code (dot) org's Hour of Code for 10 years.

This year we had increased student engagement because we offered rewards/prizes for students that completed challenges. The items in this project would let us include our entire campus: the middle school (150 students) and the other high school; 190 students. Therefore, we trained our 9th grade student-teacher volunteers to lead by teaching the Hour of Code to 10th, 11th and 12th graders in our school. Now, the 9th grader student-teachers will teach the Hour of Code to the middle and other high school in our campus to learn Coding, have fun and earn prizes such as $25 gift cards as PBIS incentives for completing the 16 HOC challenges and rewards for the May 26th Robotics competition.
