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

My students are Middle Schoolers enrolled in my STEAM Lab, from Garden Grove, California who love to learn about how innovation can help them level up and express their creativity while sharing their own unique perspectives on the world. They feel delight and surprise when they see what's possible.

We do project based learning together and during distance learning, its my priority to give them access to as many cutting edge technologies as possible.

My Project

I am raising money for a year's subscription to Padlet, a very cool software as a service product, that runs on a chrome browser, which allows me to take ordinary material and break it up into group project based learning using Zoom Breakout rooms. I'd like a subscription to Padlet for my CTE Medical Detectives course so that students may collaborate on a Padlet wall to solve Medical Mystery Cases. I can create a wall of clues, and students will post to the wall and connect them.

I will also use my subscription with my regular STEAM Lab to allow students to build Padlet Vision Boards while studying graphic design and design thinking.

By breaking up into Zoom breakup rooms and working as a group, they can attach images and create one large collage of creative inspiration.

BrainPOP has been recommended for its fun and engaging games that include topics in my Medical Detectives course. The original idea was for students to do projects in the classroom with scientific experimentation. This allows me to provide more games to help them learn about taking Vital Signs and Human Body Systems.

Both courses are part of CTE pathways and help students explore college and career readiness.

Thank you!
