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.

I teach a wonderful bunch of fifth graders in an inner-city school who love to learn in new and innovative ways.

My students love to learn and are always more interested when they can use a computer. Due to a fire in our building a year and a half ago and limited funds within the district, my classroom doesn't have the number of computers needed to inspire these inquisitive learners.

A netbook computer would allow my students to complete their research projects in the safety of their classroom where their questions can be answered immediately. A netbook is small enough so that each child could work at their own desk and have their resources within reach.

With your support, I can help bring these terrific kids into the 21st century. Since technology is limited in these households, you will be giving these children the gift of the world at their fingertips.
