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 students are an extraordinary group of individuals. They are are primarily Hispanic. I love that my students are very curious and that they want to learn new things every day. My students love to try new things especially when it comes to technology, computers, and tablets. They are excited children who love to work with new technology.

My students are future innovators who love to learn new and challenging technological skills.

They are not afraid to work with new technology and of learning a variety of ways to interpret their knowledge through the use of technology.

My Project

The addition of laptops to our Coding class will help more of my students to practice skills individually instead of having to share a PC with other students in class. These laptops will allow students to program and design using the latest coding recommendations. The funding of this project will provide my students with laptops that will help them and ultimately increase their academic achievement.

The laptops will provide flexibility and functionality for students to develop their Coding skills.

Students will have access to up-to-date resources and will provide more opportunities for students. These laptops will provide a direct access to students to their future careers as computer programmers.
