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 Students

In addition to being a brilliant group of kids, the students in my afterschool STEM club are bursting with creativity. Help us find ways to harness today’s technology in ways that would allow all of them to explore robotics and coding and also express what they have learned in their own unique way!

My afterschool STEM club students have limited resources, but possess unlimited potential.

All of my students qualify for and receive free lunch. However, in our after school STEM club, this is not what defines them. My students are all unique and brilliant, every one in their own way. Each has their own distinctive way of understanding and expressing what they learn. Our school is filled with amazing artists, fantastic writers, talented mathematicians, brilliant scientists and wonderful storytellers. As a teacher, I want to provide as many opportunities for my students to utilize today’s technology as a tool to assist them in their learning.

My Project

Using our Kuman for Arduino Project Complete Starter Kits along with our SunFounder Standard Gripper Kit Paws, my after school 5th and 6th graders will be able to collaboratively develop their 21st century skills by using mBlock software to enter code into the arduinos and program the movements of the robotic arm kits. The 4th and 3rd grade students in my after school STEM club will use the OWI Robotic Arms and Makey Makey kits to understand the concepts of circuits as well as gain basic knowledge of coding and robotic movements and control. These tools will help them gain the skills and knowledge to be prepared for more advanced robotics tasks!
