  • Removing Barriers and Achieving Success in Literacy

    Funded May 7, 2021

    Thank you for the kindles. They are a great help in class. The devices allow us to read books that normally take months to order or not received during the school year.. I have been using the same texts with my students for the last 5 years. It is a great feeling to provide relevant texts and articles in Spanish for my students and at their reading level. Having the ability to choose texts that will interest my students makes the reading process much more enjoyable for us all.

    The student were so excited to use the kindles. They have the ability to change the size of the text, which they all liked. There was an ease to the reading as we started. They also like the size of the kindles

    The group that is using the kindles is my 8th grade group. They now want me to try to get enough for the entire class. They want to use them regularly.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Jimenez

  • Clean Air for Hybrid Learning

    Funded Jul 13, 2021

    I am so excited to see that this project has funded. I am so glad that we will be able to start school in a clean air environment. Especially since we are now seeing a growth in Covid cases. Thank you again for helping to make this possible for a few more of our most needy and deserving students! Make sure to be on the lookout for pictures of the unit in use in our classroom.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Jimenez

We use computers for activities on a weekly basis. What becomes a problem is not having enough working computers. We currently have 10 year old Mac books with missing keys and many other problems. Every time one stops working or will not allow students to log on, they miss important instruction time. I have 120 amazing students, that come from diverse backgrounds, these chrome books will allow all of my students to have an equal opportunity to excel. They will be used for remediation and acceleration. They will be able to practice reading, writing and speaking in Spanish. I will also be able to support their English language learning thorough their use of Spanish grammar comparisons to English. As we continue to move towards a technology based curriculum this is one step towards their preparation and a key to their success. We will be using various language programs, Duo-lingo, Quizlet, Quizizz, Kahoots, Quia, Quick time player for speaking activities and for video projects. They will also be used for Cultural research projects and activities.
