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

Technology plays a vital role in our classroom, enabling students to engage in hands-on learning experiences with iPads, laptops, and interactive robots. However, keeping all our devices powered and ready to use is a constant challenge. With your help, we can provide our students with the batteries and USB charging ports they need to keep their Sphero Robots, Dash & Dot Robots, and Indi Robots charged and ready for exploration. These tools help our students develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and teamwork through coding and robotics activities.

Our students need batteries and USB charging ports to keep their learning devices powered and ready for use.

With these essential supplies, we can ensure that our iPads and laptops remain fully charged, allowing students to access educational apps, research projects, and interactive lessons. Additionally, the batteries will help power the remotes for our recently funded VR headsets, which provide immersive learning experiences such as virtual field trips and hands-on simulations.

By supporting this project, you will help our students continue to engage with innovative technology that brings learning to life. Your contribution will allow them to explore robotics, coding, and virtual reality without the frustration of losing power mid-lesson. Thank you for helping us keep our classroom charged and ready for discovery!
