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

The materials will provide students with hands-on learning experiences that blend STEM, design, and entrepreneurship. These tools will empower students to prototype ideas, build functional models, and express their creativity in innovative ways. Through hands-on engagement, students will strengthen their problem-solving abilities, critical thinking, and technical skills—key competencies for future careers in engineering, robotics, fashion design, and business.

Whether through assisted sewing techniques, user-friendly cutting and design software, or accessible robotics applications, all students will have the opportunity to develop essential skills, gain confidence, and express their creativity in a supportive and inclusive environment.

The combination of tactile and visual elements allows students with different learning styles to engage meaningfully. Whether through assisted sewing techniques, user-friendly cutting and design software, or accessible robotics applications, all students will have the opportunity to develop essential skills, gain confidence, and express their creativity in a supportive and inclusive environment. Furthermore, these tools will make learning more interactive and engaging, fostering a sense of ownership over projects and inspiring real-world innovation.
