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

My students come from diverse ethnic backgrounds and speak a variety of languages such as Spanish, Khmer, and Vietnamese at home. They live in a poverty-stricken neighborhood with a high crime rate. Some of my students are homeless. Despite their many challenges, they are students who are motivated to learn. School is a safe place for them. They enjoy learning the most when they are able to have hands-on opportunities to learn. Many of our students dream of being the first in their family to go to college.

My Project

This project continues four years of collaboration with Makersville and Brickersville. The project has evolved and expanded, and we have made very good progress as we understand how to implement the FIRST LEGO League program and the EV3 robots within our after school time constraints. We will directly follow it with a second (different) project that will apply the skills the students learn to create a donation robot using the same LEGO EV3 platform. That donation robot will be used to support our fundraising. We will celebrate at an event that brings all of our after school program students together with their parents to showcase the FIRST LEGO League and the donation robot.
