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

I serve Gifted and Talented students in a highly diverse, low-income district. The students come from many different backgrounds and a majority of our students speak a second language. Our students come from supportive families who want the best for their kids but often do not have the resources they need to assist them. These students are focused and excited to learn. Gifted students are tomorrow's leaders, inventors, problem-solvers, and creators!

Providing them with opportunities to think critically and collaborate is essential for their success while providing them more opportunities to be more college and career-ready!

Our classroom is a STEM MAKER classroom which means regardless of what class kids are in, they are inventing, designing, and making prototypes that solve problems or can be sold in our class store. It's really amazing to see what 11-year-olds can do when they are given the supplies, resources, and opportunities to work on things they are passionate about! The three 3D printers will be used for 3D designs for our school store. The jewelry supplies are for our Art & Resin Economics class. These students survey their clients (fellow students) and design products according to the brand they have chosen to represent their companies. For example, students will use graphite paper and tracing paper to transfer their logos and designs onto everyday objects such as clothing, ornaments, and/or accessories that can be sold in our store. These additions will keep the resin store going for another year.
