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

My students are motivated learners who seek to learn and practice physical computing using Makey Makey kit projects and self made conductive circuits to bring their projects to life.

When they participate in computer science and makers activities, they participate with more enthusiasm and are eager to learn more.

By using the wires, foil, prong fasteners as an example, they can create projects that will show their creative process to make their learning more interactive. They will connect their conductive materials to Makey Makeys circuit boards and code on Scratch to full engage in a variety of projects across the curriculum.
