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

My students need the Hummingbird Bit kits to further their understanding of computer hardware and software components.

The students will use the Hummingbird Bit kits to extend our micro:Bits to create a variety of interactive robotic projects .

The Hummingbird kits allow the students the ability to program and design fully functioning robots with ease.

Using the kits the students will be able to showcase what they have learned in STEM class and showcase it at our yearly STEM night for family and friends. As a kit, the projects are open ended and the possibilities are endless.
