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

I have the best techie students who are full of energy and excited to learn about technology. They enjoy when we get creative, changing things up by doing class activities and projects that are hands-on. They are a pretty diverse group of kids with different backgrounds and cultures. My kids have the potential to be someone amazing when they grow up; they just need the extra resources and tools to accomplish it, especially the technology!

My school is an incredible charter school that cares about the students and teachers.

While they ensure the kids receive the necessary materials, we need some help, especially after Hurricane Irma, in ensuring they get extra resources that will let them have a more hands-on experience. When my students enter the room, I want them to be encouraged to strive for their best, continue to be enthusiastic and happy with STEM-related projects in tech class and have access to the latest technology that will inspire their future careers.

My Project

My awesome students need resources for our classroom. We have been learning about computer hardware in the tech lab but have limited equipment to actually build them. During class we work with an old PC that lacks the running capabiltity to see it work in front of their eyes.

This is why I figure CPU Coolers and storage cards would be a great donation so that they may use them to finish the hardware assembly of the pc's.

The computers are an attention grabber for students to love the technology world. It would be a thrill to access equipment that some will only ever hear about.

If this project is funded I know it will make a difference to my students because it will inspire them to learn more about technology that would normally make them think was to complex or accessible. Allow them the opportunity to do something productive and entertaining rather than just playing a game. I personally think that this will really make the parents and students excited about our classroom projects because it is adding more creative technology to our classroom.
