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 project will consist of tools to bend and strip wires and batteries to power the electronics. Arduino kits that the students will use to learn about electricity and how it flows as well as some basic programming for various sensors. I have included enough kits so that students can work individually. I have also included outlets and housing for them so that I can show students how circuits work in a home and I will give them the opportunity to test out how to correctly wire items.

Students will use all of these resources to better understand the flow of electricity and the various ways that it can be used.
