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 a diverse group of students who are eager and happy to learn. The majority of our students are English language learners and/or students with disabilities. This laptop will help me collect data in class and plan meaningful lessons. Students will have immediate access to assignments posted to their Google Classroom. They will also benefit from immediate feedback. My students and I will always remember your generosity. English language learners, students with disabilities, SiFE students with interrupted former education and our gifted students need your support. Again, thank you so much for your generosity .
