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

"A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning." - Brad Henry

I work in a school in North Alabama; the majority of our students are middle to lower income kids.

Our students range from lower to upper class.

Our kids love to have fun and learn. We want to give every kid the opportunity to learn more and be good at what they do. We want them to leave school feeling successful in everything they do.

My Project

With these LEGO WeDo and Rube Goldberg STEM kits, my kids will be able to explore the world of LEGO coding and programming as they learn more about physics. When you put a learning tool into kids' hands, they will learn and have fun just doing it. You have to make learning an exciting time in their lives.

STEM is so important in today's world.

We are preparing kids for tomorrows jobs.

Rube Goldberg is the world of hilarious inventions where you build a wacky chain reaction of contraptions to complete a challenge! With these kits, my students will be learning the world of physics. This will be such a fun way of learning physics.

The LEGO WeDo set is based upon the latest science standards and was created to enhance students' curiosity and science skills. The set is delivered in a storage bin along with sorting trays, labels, a Smarthub, a Medium Motor, Motion Sensor, a Tilt Sensor and enough building elements for students.

Kids are going to love learning with these materials, and I am going to enjoy teaching them! Thank you again for your support!
