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

Do you remember taking physics and not understanding how electricity works? My students frequently experience this phenomena, so it would be great if you could electrify their learning.

My students love to learn about science.

Whenever they can experiment and explore on their own, you see their faces light up. These supplies would really help them understand electricity and motivate them to learn the mathematical application of electricity.

My Project

I am requesting wire, wire cutter, and switches so my students can make their own circuits, and explore the way electricity works and when it doesn't work. We need more science majors, and anything we can do to encourage them will help us and their future.

My students don't need a lot to learn, but sometimes all you need is just a little help.

These supplies are not cutting edge technology, but they will go a long way in helping my students learn.
