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 tell my students they can all learn mathematics and even become mathematicians. I have students that are not motivated to learn math. I have students with English limitations as well as students with special needs that benefit from a differentiated instruction.

I have students that are not motivated to learn math.

The school is located in Miami, Florida. I have students with English limitations as well as students with special needs that benefit from a differentiated instruction. Some of these students can't afford to have a computer at home and can only benefit from these resources in the classroom. Technology is advancing daily and there are great interactive websites that these students can benefit from. The lack of the important technology has gotten in the way of their learning mathematics in an exciting, meaningful way. By using this iPad in the classroom, I can motivate them, engage them and individualize these students' needs and get them to succeed in math.

My Project

I will separate students in small groups, according to their needs and have them use this iPad to get them motivated, involved and engaged in the lesson. These tools being vibrant in color and speedy will capture their attention and allow them to interact with the websites I assign to them according to their individual needs. There are also many intervention programs that I will use with them, that will give them the differentiated instruction needed. This technology will motivate my students who are not proficient in English as well as my students with learning disabilities to succeed in mathematics.

This iPad will make a difference in my students' lives and education.

Many of them feel that they are not good in math and can't do it. These tools will make them change the way them feel about math. These tools being vibrant and speedy will capture their attention, motivate them and engage them in mathematics. With so many available resources on-line, my students will have real time data at their fingertips and software that will diagnose and target their needs.
