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

After recently attending a conference, I now better understand the needs of children with ADHD and the challenge facing them when attempting to organize their thoughts as well as their displeasure for handwriting.

Allowing my fourth grade students to utilize iPads with keyboards would alleviate their frustration with handwriting, and better accommodate their challenge to organize their thoughts when writing.

Changing my fourth grade students' perception of writing is essential to their success throughout their academic career.

My Project

My fourth grade students will use iPads equipped with Apple Pages and Bluetooth keyboards to better organize their thoughts and alleviate their frustrations with handwriting when writing. Changing my fourth grade students' perception of writing is essential to their success throughout their academic career.

Especially in fourth grade, as their confidence is built by their performance on the STAAR standardized writing test, this will drive their success for future testing and academic challenges.
