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

Our school receives hundreds of newcomers students from a wide variety of countries every year (El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala....). Some of our students did not have the opportunity to attend school in their home countries because they had to help their families financially.

Sometimes my students spent more than half the day at work, leaving them exhausted and with little time to attend school.

This situation gave rise to the fact that they needed help to develop academic skills and capacities for using technology.

Every day we witness how technology covers more aspects of our lives, and education is no exception. Educational platforms flood our classrooms, but what happens to those students who need to acquire the skills to use new technologies or electronic devices so necessary daily?

With the help of the materials such as a printer or a label maker in this project, we can give my kids time to develop their skills, and while they do, they can continue learning through printed activities, just like in the old days! As we did the past generations!
