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

My physics students are curious and interested in our world. They are an incredibly diverse group from around the world. Many speak other languages, yet all come together to learn. Regardless of their culture, all families want their children to learn everything they can and prepare for a successful future.

Like most students today, they infuse technology into all of their activities.

Having access every day helps them learn about physics. Science classes are great for allowing all students to integrate technology into learning concepts.

My Project

My students could use a few additional "basics." Earlier in the year our class got DonorsChoose projects for graphing calculators and white boards. Due to extensive use students need more AAA batteries for the calculators. The AA batteries are used in Fan Carts for acceleration and Newton's Laws. They also get put in the Flying Pigs for an AP Physics Lab. Needless to say we could use new ones for the current and circuits unit at the end of the year.

Whiteboarding is a great way for students to show what they know.

By explaining problems to each other they retain the concepts better than just doing paper and pencil problems. However, it takes quite a few expo markers throughout the year.
