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

As we move into a technologically rich world, it is imperative that our students aren't left behind. All of the new technology tools should be available to all students regardless of their economic standing. These students are our future and we need to get them there.

My students come from the largest school district in the state of Connecticut.

We are also the largest school in our district. Most of my students live below the poverty line and in environments that are not conducive to learning. Even with these things going on around them, they make it to school every day and have an insatiable love of learning.

My Project

Tablet computers hold a multitude of educational apps that my students need to progress into the future of education. Students will need to be better acquainted with technology after finishing school to succeed in the workforce. What better way than to teach them how to access and use technology that is currently out there?

Captivation and motivation are two important factors in educating our children today.

We live in a society where instant gratification and the use of technology are dominant. Please help me to keep my students up to par or better than the others. Together we can give them the edge they need to be competitive in a technologically driven market. Not only that, but we will also be able to give them the tools needed to enrich their own education.
