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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students enjoy hands on learning experiences. Because technology has been embedded in all of my pupils' lives, this is the best approach to engage them. The virtual reality experience will indeed motivate them to learn at a whole new level. Being able to bring the virtual reality headsets to my classroom will help to deepen the knowledge of my scholars. This opportunity will enrich their lives for the better. Infusing education with technology will allow field trips and the investigation of science come to life before their eyes. My students will take flight with their inquisitive nature with such STEAM gadget.
