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

Students love programing and coding.

When they have the right tools to program and code, their creativity becomes endless.

My class is made up of students who are eager to do both. They have been able to program and code Micro:bits on borrowed devices and would love to have a class set where multiple projects can be programed. Not having to work in groups and being able to have an individual Micro:bit will spark enthusiasm for my students.

My class will also use the tripod stand to record themselves making Public Service Announcement. They will use the stand to hold an iPad to record and to use it as a teleprompter to read their lines.

Both the Micro:bits and the stand will support my STEAM scholars.
