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.
I am a eighth year teacher working on my first year trying flexible seating. I teach in a low-income/Title I school district, and my students face several challenges both in and out of the classroom.
Despite the hardships they have faced, they are resilient and spirited learners making their way back.
They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able personally to solve the many challenges they face outside of school. However, I can certainly make a powerful impact on the eight hours they spend here at school every day.
My Project
We have a computer engineering club at our school that I have run for 3 years now. It is an amazing club where students learn how to build and repair computers as well as code and use 3D printers and their software.
Each year I try to give away at least one computer to a student in need so that a family in our community will have a home computer.
Our community is low income and many of our students do not have a computer of their own at school. I try to give to one lucky student from the club each year and the parts in this project would help me finish a computer for them.
