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

Our school is located in Far Rockaway, urban area where Funds are very scares in the school. Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with different views on learning education through our school. In order to provide my students with more hands-on tools within the classroom. I am looking for some help to provide my students with calculators in the classroom. This will allow my students an opportunity to compute various task work and calculations. It will allow them the opportunity to be confident to be able to showcase their work through bulletin boards task and classwork.

My Project

All of my students within the classroom come from low-economic backgrounds and where school supplies are scares and in need. Our school is a small family in which we want to provide the best education possible for all our students.

Within my ENL classroom many of my students struggle with the language barrier and most importantly their calculations.

Being able to help my students with the TI-34 Scientific calculators will allow them to feel more confident in checking their calculations and being able to provide additional support to others in their group through discussions within our classroom.

Please lend a helping hand in allowing us as a class to calculate our work.
