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

FAJHS is located in Yuma Arizona. Our school served a high population of low income and migrant family that travel back and forth with the crops. Students normally move around different school and they tend to struggle a lot. They have low incentives to continue education or have never been in touch with technology, this materials will help me show them all the possibilities they have in life and how fun science is.

My Project

With all the technology material my students will be able to build projects and realize how simple will be to think outside the box.

Trying to get them excited about a science career how they are able to use it, and all the things that they can create.

Make then able to build prototypes, show them how math, science, art,engineering it is part of our daily life.

I'm pretty sure my student will be excited building their own models getting in touch with technology that have never seen, and they will realize how simple it is to create their own.

Motivation, is the key to get the next generation going.
