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

Our school provides a safe haven for students in a high mobility area of our city. Our community is a diverse mix of families, some in their second generation of attendance, veteran and new teachers (including two former students!), and experienced school leaders.

While our students face some obstacles in accessing resources, they have the same aspirations and hopes as students throughout the city.

We strive to overcome some obstacles in providing them with the access and use of technologies that will help them fulfill their goals.

My Project

The Chromebooks will allow students to develop 21st Century Communication Skills while studying Science and Math by providing tools that they will be using in their Secondary School environments. Our district provides a laptop to every High Schooler, so having experience with Chromebooks as educational tools will prepare them for High School and their future careers.

This technology will allow students to conduct research in the classroom, rather than a remote location, use Google tools to produce slideshows and essays demonstrating their understanding of Scientific concepts such as Force and Motion, Adaptations, and Properties of Matter, and utilize district resources like Stemscopes, which provide virtual labs to enhance their learning.

As an IB school, these tools will specifically help in our End-of-Year Exhibition Projects, a culmination of a student's Elementary experience.

Students will be able to work collaboratively in their own classroom environment with Chromebooks, rather than trying to gather around stationary desktops, fixed in a single location, and lacking much room for more than a single student to work.

This technology has the chance to change learning in our classroom for the better!
