Celebrating 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
"Never give up, never surrender!" As you enter the library you hear little voices chanting our motto as they work together to try to solve or improve their projects. Kids come to the library during their recess or afterschool time to solve different STEM challenges.
My students are third, fourth and fifth graders, 9, 10 and 11 year-olds who live in the Bronx, one of the poorest districts in the United States.
They are smart and creative, but unfortunately lack the means to learn through hands-on experience, especially STEAM related topics such as electronics, computer programing and circuitry.
My Project
My students need refills for their 3 Doodler pens. 3D Pens are an amazing new invention which use the same technologies like 3D printing to offer you fun and unique creative tool. They're used by artists, craft hobbyists, and children to create all kinds of amazing three-dimensional objects. I bought four 3Doodler pens and it was a great success.
With the 3D pens, my students were able to understand geometrical concepts almost instantly!
Unfortunately, we ran out of the refills.
My students are smart and creative but unfortunately, they lack the means to buy refills for their 3D doodler pens.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
