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

We are continually building our technology resources in our classroom. We have 8th and 7th grade students who are learning how to transfer their ideas into designs and we would like to help them see their ideas in 3D! The ideas are the result of their problem - solving thinking and it will be great to see those in action.

The students are going to use the 3D printer to turn their ideas into 3D objects that they can use!

As students use engineering design process, they will come up with proposed solutions on how to solve the problems that they see or experience in their community. These skills are going to be useful and crucial as they grow up to be part of our society in the future.
