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

We are thrilled to embark on an exciting project with our students: creating their own e-books! This initiative will not only foster their creativity and writing skills but also enhance their digital literacy in today's technology-driven world.

To bring this vision to life, we need your support in acquiring a dedicated class laptop.

This laptop will serve as the central hub for our e-book creation process, allowing students to:

Write and edit their stories: Develop their narrative skills and explore their imaginations.

Design and illustrate their books: Learn graphic design and visual storytelling.

Collaborate on projects: Foster teamwork and communication skills.

Publish their e-books: Experience the thrill of sharing their work with a wider audience.

Learn valuable digital skills: Increase computer literacy in a fun and engaging way.

We believe that this project will ignite a passion for reading and writing in our students, while also equipping them with essential 21st-century skills.
