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

I teach three remarkable groups of 64 sixth-grade students in total in a low-income district where resources are limited, but their potential is limitless. My students thrive when lessons are engaging, interactive, and visually dynamic. Unfortunately, our current classroom screen often fails to function, creating barriers to delivering high-quality, technology-integrated lessons.

By acquiring a reliable projector and a slide clicker, I aim to transform our classroom into an engaging and professional learning space.

The projector will allow me to bring lessons to life with vibrant visuals, interactive content, and multimedia resources that support both language acquisition and critical thinking. The slide clicker will enable seamless presentations, keeping students focused and minimizing disruptions.

These resources will empower my students to explore ideas creatively, collaborate effectively, and develop the 21st-century skills they need to succeed. My goal is to inspire a love for learning in every child, bridging the gap between limited resources and limitless potential. These students are resilient, curious, and capable, and they deserve tools that match their drive to succeed. Together, we can make this vision a reality!
