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 Students

My 4th grade students are sweet and appreciative kids that are grateful for the things they have. They come from a low socioeconomic area in Los Angeles. Every student gets free breakfast and lunch. The majority of the students are English learners that come from Spanish speaking parents that have immigrated to Los Angeles. There are 30 students enrolled in class which makes it difficult to teach whole group and maneuver around the class. Although it's a bit crowded, we make it work!

My Project

Getting an Apple laptop for my classroom will engage my students to practice skills taught by going onto websites like khan Academy for math practice or Readworks to practice reading comprehension. Having A laptop in the classroom will also motivate my students in creating PowerPoint presentations and using them to present to their classmates. Having an Apple product will help my students use iMovie to create scenes and produce a play. Students will be able to show their creativity to the parents during open house or STEAM night. Lastly, having a laptop will help us accomplish or goal of Attacking our Tech standards this year.
