FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Rose Malinowski's classroom raised $507
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
My students live in a low-income/high-poverty urban school district. Their experiences are limited. They are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom, with challenges including emotional trauma, a high mobility rate, and many other special needs.
Many of them are being raised in single-parent households, and 99% receive free lunch and breakfast.
My students are 70% Hispanic and 30% African-American. I have several ELL students in my class as well as special needs students. The majority of my students are far below the national and state standards in reading and math.
My Project
We are having a summer STEAM camp.
We are going to design and build rockets, so our learning will take off!
The students will go through the design engineering process to learn about rockets, forces, motion, and chemical reactions using NASA education program lessons. Students will sketch their designs and then paint or color their rocket skins, bottles, or materials with these supplies. This is an interdisciplinary project, students will be reading about rockets, measuring the distance traveled, and applying scientific principles. We are hoping to inspire future rocket scientists with this engaging project.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
