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 imaginative, resourceful, and always ready to embrace new technologies that can bring their ideas to life. They have a keen interest in exploring the intersection of science, technology, and creativity. The Creality Ender 3 3D Printer I'm requesting will provide them with a powerful tool to design and create 3D models, chemistry manipulatives, Bohr diagrams, and other educational resources that will enhance their learning experience.

With this versatile 3D printer, my students will have the opportunity to transform their digital designs into tangible objects, fostering a deeper understanding of complex scientific concepts.

They'll learn about the principles of additive manufacturing, materials science, and computer-aided design, while developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and spatial reasoning skills. By creating their own chemistry manipulatives and Bohr diagram models, they'll be able to visualize abstract ideas, engage in hands-on learning, and develop a stronger connection to the subject matter.

My goal for this project is to create a dynamic and innovative learning environment that empowers my students to become active participants in their own education. By providing them with access to 3D printing technology, I aim to foster their creativity, encourage them to think outside the box, and inspire them to pursue their passions in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). I want my students to feel confident in their ability to design, create, and innovate, and to recognize the limitless possibilities that arise when they combine their imagination with cutting-edge tools.

What makes my students truly exceptional is their boundless curiosity and their desire to make a positive impact on the world. By supporting this project, you'll be helping me provide them with the resources they need to unlock their full potential, explore the frontiers of science and technology, and become the innovators and problem solvers of tomorrow.

Grades 9-12
