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

The second grade students at my school are enthusiastic learners who are filled with curiosity. They are highly energetic and active learners.

They are very motivated by hands-on experiences.

My class is 95 percent African-American with a majority from low income families. 40 percent of my students are children with special needs and a few English language learners who learn better with hands-on and real life experiences in all subject areas . Our school is located in Canarsie - a great neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York.

Our school is a Title I school, and only allows a small amount of funding for classroom supplies and trips. It's never enough to cover the needs for our students in the classroom.

My Project

I envision my students working together on the touch interface of an iPad mini to program the robot Dash and Botley in order to learn the basics of computer programming. With Dash and Botley computer programmable robots my students will be exposed to a level of computer science that they otherwise would not have access to. This will give my students an advantage and may encourage them to pursue a career path they would have never imagined without the exposure to this innovative technology. I want my students to be able to make the connection that computers are actually machines that you can program to do what you want.

It is my goal for them to discover a whole new world of learning, play and adventure.

Access to this technology will inspire them to do great things and will encourage them to want to seek a career in a field such as science, engineering, technology or mathematics. Their futures will be brighter as a result of this project being funded!
