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

Students at my school apply to come here; they are motivated, engaged, and ready to learn. Students follow their career path which includes automotive service technology, culinary, construction technology, education, architectural design, IT networking, sports medicine, nursing assistant, and cosmetology to name a few. I see these students for their core science class, in particular chemistry and geoscience. These students amaze me with their desire to work in their future careers. After a difficult year and a half online due to COVID, these students need the tools that will help them be successful in the classroom, laboratory, and the world outside the classroom.

Science has been a class that many of my students feel doesn't matter, but only a necessary class that will help them graduate.

I strive to show them how science applies to their lives.

I strive every day to make class engaging and hands-on. Tools to do this are not readily available or not in the budget. I want my students to have these opportunities and see the science in the world around them. Science matters and engaging science makes for critical thinkers that solve real-world problems. This is my goal for all students.

My Project

Students have been learning and seeing 3D printing both inside and outside the classroom this year. Students who have been quiet, raise their hands and ask about 3D printing. They bring up videos and files they see online and ask can we do that? My response was, yes, we can.

3D printing has brought the class together and smiles and engagement to all students.

Students who may put their heads down and tune out are now telling stories of prints they see and asking when they can print.

Students sign up to print and right now we are weeks out before there are available spots to sign up. Help ease the burden by adding another Anycubic Vyper to the classroom and keep students smiling and discussing.
