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

Many plan their entire high-school experience around the idea that they will be applying for some of the most competitive universities out there. Even with their personal challenges that they experience day in and day out, they always keep their eyes on the prize. Growing up in a low-income community where opportunities appear to be dwindling every day, my students live by the credos, "Don't just find resources, but be resourceful!"

With the advances of technology in education and within the highly competitive field of robotics, my classroom strives to showcase what can be achieved with a little ingenuity.

Access to robotic parts and programs will provide a mathematical and engineering lens where students can program and create with accuracy miniature robots.

By being able to see, feel and especially troubleshoot any errors, my students will be able to have another appreciation and perspective for robotics. My goals include getting students to inquire more about form and function and how to understand how electricity factors into move of inanimate objects. My students love to work with their hands and in small groups, so this type of project-based learning would be great for them.
