Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
We are a Title I school located near the South Texas border with Mexico. Our students are at risk with 100% free breakfast and lunch. Many of our students are Hispanic and do not speak English at home.
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning but doesn't have the resources to do all they are capable of doing in the classroom.
Despite these challenges, they come to school eager and ready to learn.
Please help me close the educational gap.
My Project
These little robots will help my students get introduced to the world of STEM. Ozobot is a miniature smart robot that can follow lines or roam around freely, detect colors, and can also be programmed. They will learn to manually code with markers and then take that knowledge to learn to digitally code. They promote logical thinking, problem solving, persistence, collaboration, creativity, and communication.
All of these skills improve academic success.
Using Ozobots in the classroom will empower my students to understand that they can influence how and why technology is used. They will let their creativity flow and reach for new heights as they become innovators and shift their understanding of what's possible when they learn something new.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
