Booking It to STEAM

My students need STEM books that will help them unleash the engineer within. Additionally, we need a cart to help us keep our math equipment organized.

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

Every day, regardless of the challenges in their lives, my students work relentlessly hard to become conscious and justice-oriented individuals. They use their skills to eliminate the various systems of oppression that keep them and their families from achieving their full potential.

My class is a group of passionate, funny, freedom-fighting and inquisitive kids who want to use their knowledge to improve the City of Richmond.

Our students' daily lives are full of adversity. At our school, one hundred percent of students qualify and receive free breakfast and lunch. Many of our students face many challenges at home; however, this does not get in the way of their success. Instead, they remain perseverant and continue to strive and achieve excellence.

My Project

"When you have mastered numbers, you will in fact no longer be reading numbers, any more than you read words when reading books. You will be reading meanings." - W. E. B. Du Bois

Together, we can help the students of today become the great engineers of tomorrow that our country so desperately needs.

I want to help my students master the language of engineering. Having access to STEAM books on several topics and reading levels will not only ignite my students' passion for learning but will also equip with the knowledge and language that will set them up for success when they begin a career as a scientist, mathematician, or engineer.

Lastly, modeling organization and professionalism for my students with the support of a cart to hold our mathematics supplies will provide my students with a much-needed example as they pursue their lives as mathematicians, scientist, and engineers. Having a cart will help me keep our math materials organized so that I can quickly locate them during our math and science lessons.
