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

My students are fascinated about current technology and love when they get an opportunity to use them. I want to teach my students specifically about 3D printing technology and the careers they can use this technology with in the future with a 3D printer, tablet, filament and other items.

As the need for people to work in this field is growing, it would be great to teach my students all the ways this technology may impact their future and even lead to studies in college and career around this exciting field.

By the end, of these lessons my students will have a greater appreciation for this field.
