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.
My Students
My students are High School Students with Mild - Moderate Disabilities. They are an active and curious group that enjoys discovering new things. They are very creative and enjoy showcasing their abilities.
When they are given a chance to shine, they shine bright.
As students with special needs they often feel minimized or less capable, but they are very intelligent kids who have a lot to offer. These guys are all capable of great things.
They all love to learn, but are often overlooked due to their disabilities. They enjoy critical thinking activities and real appreciate a great discussion.
My Project
My students will create and program a weather station to collect local weather data throughout the semester. They will then use the data to graph changes and compare to historic weather data.
This will give them a better understanding of climate and how changes in climate can effect an eco-system.
Climate and weather are a very important topic right now and projects like this will give them the skills they need to be informed participants in the community.
Donating to this project will help students for years to come. Not only will I be able to use this activity every semester impacting hundreds of students, but they will each be able to share what they have learned with their community.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
