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

The 3D Doodlers will make a difference in learning for my 8th graders because students will have the opportunity to see their designs and models come to life. While developing problem-solving, critical thinking, organization and communication skills. In class, we will first learn the steps of creating a proper and functional design. Students will be able to create and have their ideas come to life. Not only will students be able to explore more areas of engineering and product development, they will learn techniques on how to properly handle equipment as well. I want to be able to enhance their learning experience and I believe that if you give a child the tools to thrive in science, they will create a relationship with science that books and videos cannot do. Please help me create future doctors, scientists, and engineers.
