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

I teach a group of 100 plus dedicated 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students who have a strong passion for learning through technology. I am charged with teaching these students important Advanced Placement and Cambridge level lessons, while integrating technology. Throughout the year, the students use programs and create projects that encourage them to use technology.

This project will have a positive impact on my students and help them prepare for their college level end of year exams.

Our school is a high performing school with significant parent involvement. We strive for excellence as we prepare our students for the technology driven world of the future.

My Project

As technology evolves, I feel it is my role, as a classroom teacher, to provide meaningful experiences to enhance their digital literacy. These materials will provide my students the opportunity to work on many activities in the classroom that will improve their technological skills.

These laptops will help give more of my students access to complete their online classwork and district programs that target their individual needs.

We employ real world event planning strategies that requires students to create logos, balance their finances, produce marketing materials, and make a thorough Business Plan. This course requires daily internet access and these computers will help students have more access during the school day.

In addition, our students will create a variety of projects dealing with the travel industry as a whole including destination marketing. I will also be able to provide my students the opportunity to print their work, so we can display it in class. This will help inspire them as they see their final product printed and displayed.

Also, our school district is moving towards adopting electronic textbooks for our students. These laptops will provide students increased access to their textbooks online.
