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

Building, designing, and programming allow students to express ideas in physical ways, work alongside peers, and think critically; all skills that prepare students for the future. Giving students headphones and mouses will allow them better access to individual learning using CAD (computer aided design) and programming. While the other materials will help keep them organized (a skill that needs to be relearned) and keep the classroom clean and sanitized.

The goal is to get students back into the rhythm of in person school and hands on learning after the past few years dealing with the pandemic.

The future relies on innovative thinkers, confident collaborators, and go getters. Adding these materials will give students access to use them to better understand lessons, create class projects, or even make something for fun! COVID 19 truly created a gap in students learning and providing them with different ways to make learning connections is crucial.
