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

My 4-year-old students are full of wonder, hope, and life! My school is located inside a homeless shelter in an urban area. My students have many obstacles in their life, yet they work hard to overcome their challenges. Every day my students work hard to learn, achieve and grow to their potential. My students are 65% Hispanic and 35% African-American. Their parents make less than 20 thousand dollars annually, or on government assistance. My students work to reach the stars and above. Please help me with my classroom.

My Project

I strive to give all students an equal opportunity in SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY. My students may not have technology or internet usage in the shelter where they live, but I seek to provide it in my classroom.

I would like to have two iPads to introduce computer applications and data collection at a PreK level.

Having STEM tools and toys will help build young engineers and computer scientists. Exposure at an early age is critical and I believe underprivileged children need equal access. Having access to iPADS and computer applications at an early age will help bridge the digital divide for these digital natives. Becoming familiar with how iPads are navigated, applied, and knowledge is accessed will give a huge advantage to my students. The STEM toys will help build critical thinking skills as they build LEGO formations, solve complex puzzles, and play advanced games.

Please help me give my students a chance to reach the stars, the moon and the GALAXY!
