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 fascinated by the stars, planets, and the mysteries of the universe. But for many, astronomy feels distant—something you only see in textbooks. I want to change that.
With your help, I hope to bring real astronomy tools into our classroom, including constellation viewers, infrared thermometers, moon phase models, and star charts.
These hands-on resources will help students visualize orbital motion, investigate thermal radiation, and deepen their understanding of cosmic phenomena.
By making the universe feel a little closer, students will not only grasp complex concepts in physics and Earth science—they’ll see themselves as future astronomers, engineers, and thinkers ready to explore beyond our world.
Thank you for helping us turn curiosity into discovery—one star at a time!
