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

"If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow." John Dewey

Do you speak more than one language?

Well, that is what my students can do; my students can speak more than one for sure. They are preparing themselves to become 'world citizens' not only by speaking more than one language, but also by learning about the world around them. Our classroom may have limited resources, but we all have unlimited dreams!

My Project

In this project, I am requesting two iPad minis (16GB) for my classroom. The truth is that technology is very much needed in my class and these two iPads will become the 'bridge' that connects my students' quest for knowledge with the world. Technology will bring my students one step closer to sharing their multiculturalism with others around the globe.

It seems that the word 'technology' is sometimes overly used, but in this day and age - technology is a driving force.

When used appropriately, technology can work miracles sometimes. There is nothing I want more that let my students have access to other cultures, to math, to the world.
