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

As we know, a strong foundation in STEM education is crucial for the evolving technology-savvy world. As a new STEM teacher at a Title 1 School, I would love to expose my students to MakeyMakey. MakeyMakey is a great way for me to introduce coding and circuits to the future scientists, engineers, and mathematicians in my classroom Through the use of MakeyMakey, students will have the opportunity to be exposed to basic coding skills.

MakeyMakey will not only help with class engagement but will also help ignite a passion in STEM for my students.

Being at a Title 1 elementary school, most of my students have not had exposure to basic science equipment. When we were using scales and goggles, they were so excited. I can't wait to get to BLOW THEIR MINDS by using MakeyMakey to make anything into a working circuit or computer!
