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 are always enthusiastic and imaginative! They love to explore and wonder. Unfortunately, it is hard for us to actually experience the grandeur of space and the excitement of exploring volcanoes! So, providing these VR tools is the next best thing that we could give to support these young learners from these socioeconomically challenged communities. Our students will use these VR tools to explore remote places that would be unimaginable for these young learners and this VR tools and application will definitely engage and grow their interest in science!
