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

My students with special needs are very creative in doing their work. They are the students with special needs and are exceptionally good with hands-on activities, such as assembling the given materials to create new things.

They love to do hands-on STEM activities and projects.

They participate in the STEM activities in the class. They love to come to school every day and be problem-solvers. They learn by using multi-media and most of them are good on computers.

My Project

The purpose of this project is to cultivate wide-ranging steering, coding, and collecting data skills along with graphing for my students. The handling of drones offers both hands-on experiences and teaches problem-solving skills. Our project is designed to take a student with little or no prior experience and guide them to be able to pilot, then eventually program a mini drone to perform a task and be successful in what they do in the class.

Your donation to our special needs students' project will help to improve my students' learning experience a fun filled activity that will motivate them to be inquisitive for STEM-related careers.

By incorporating the drones project, my students will have the confidence to see them as pilots or learn about the mechanism of the flying objects. As a teacher, I have provided them hands-on experiences with other projects that require assembling and being creative in making their projects. We do need your support to make our students show that each student has the potential to learn and be successful in their endeavor.
