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

Many things changed about my classroom when the pandemic hit, one of the main ones being the use of technology incorporated. To reduce the number of materials being passed out and to ensure that students are able to do their work whether they are at home or at school, a lot of their assignments are now done via iPads. This method has been working well for my students who have grown up around technology; however, one of the major issues is that I currently do not have enough chargers for all of my students. This makes it difficult for my students to log in to their educational websites when they have to continuously switch devices due to their assigned one not being charged.
