My students need various science kits so they can get a hands-on experience and understanding of how wind and water can be used as energy to make things move.

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
When I think about my class, I refer to the Star Wars quote, "The force is strong with this one" and switch it to "these ones." I teach in a Title I school with 92% free and reduced-price lunch and my students come to school willing to try their best. My students make me want to be a better teacher.
I have been fortunate to have taught for many years, but this year, the mention of anything that involves any long term, thematic projects lights my students' faces up.
Anything that has to do with hands-on lessons or activities, my students absorb it like sponges. I feel that a hands-on approach to learning will greatly benefit my students and their curiosity for learning.
My Project
I need various science kits so my students can get a hands on experience of understanding of how wind and water can be used as energy to make things move. I will use this during my science block as the final STEM project to display what was learned during the unit. I will have the students create a small community and use the windmills to power up the community. By having this resource, it will give my students a chance to actually show them the effects of wind and water energy. This will benefit the students because the students will be engaged.
