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
Many of our students are new immigrants and English language learners. Some of them come to the country by themselves and have no immediate family as caretakers. Most often they work at nights and weekends to be able to afford a meal and basic necessities.
Irrespective of the challenges my students face, they are determined, hardworking and focused individuals who are always curious and seeking to learn more.
They work hard to adjust and adapt to a new language, a new community culture, a new school environment, and a whole new system with a positive attitude that is motivating and inspirational. These teenagers are here to make a better life for themselves and for those like them all over the world.
My Project
At the end of 9th grade, all my students are required to take and pass the Science NYS Regents exam as part of their graduation requirement. In our classroom, we have been working on building a strong blended learning curriculum that will enable students to engage in deeper inquiry-based learning.
However, a shortage of technology, individual laptops in specific, is often challenging to fully engage all students in our blended learning curriculum.
Over the last 2 years, I have been working on getting individual Chromebooks for my students so that they can work on inquiry-based blended lessons in a language of their choice while accessing grade level science material.
These 3 Chromebooks will be a great addition to our growing classroom resources. More students will be able to access online resources like Khan Academy, Youtube Videos, BrainPop and Google Translate to name a few. We hope that you can support our dream to access science in our home languages.
If this project will be funded our class will have a set of 21 laptops!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
