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 Project

Covid restrictions limited my students' experience working as a team. Many of my students hope to work for NASA! Our theme, "Training Like an Astronaut" will provide impactful experience working in groups to design, test, and improve our engineering challenges.

Our aerospace related activities ignite their passion for continued learning in STEM.

Our projects require cooperative team effort. Working together, creatively and productively enhances our skills and can make us an asset to any problem solving team! We will work together to overcome project challenges and create projects that fulfill our objectives.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
