Help me give my students maker-space materials for the 3-D design projects to plan and design on paper then model with wooden cubes using glue guns. Adhesives are among the consumables we need the most.
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 are enthusiastic. They have such curiosity and want to learn everything and anything. I want to guide their energy towards creation and innovation. They love to experiment with new ideas and see how they work. At this age it is important to be focused on learning, which is difficult with constant distractions. I thrive to provide them with opportunities for hands on experience. I feel education is not the learning of facts but training the mind to think.
My students are eager to immerse themselves in any kind of challenge.
They are fearless when it comes to technology. As children of the 21st century, they need to be prepared to use a variety of tools to engage in their world. They should be adept in the designing process.
My Project
All of our students want to learn the design process which they will use in their lives. The adhesives, both the duct tape and the glue sticks, will give them the flexibility to work with different materials. This will also help improve their planning and designing capabilities. Glue guns are amazing devices for adhering wooden cubes. We have glue guns but no glue sticks.
A supply of glue sticks and duct tape will give all students a chance to be creative and learn in a fun hands on way.
This will enhance the environment not only in the classroom, but in the community.
More than half of students from low‑income households
