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 a Title I school in Hialeah, FL with an enrollment of 598 students. All our students receive free breakfast and many qualify for free or reduced lunch. My first graders are a diverse group of students who come from different cultural backgrounds. They are all English Language Learners (ELL) and are still acquiring the English language. They come into class everyday excited and eager to learn English and many new things. My students are sweet and compassionate and are truly amazing!

My Project

These laptops will help my students work on i-Ready and Imagine learning. During centers the class is divided into 3 groups of 5 students each. This will allow each group to work on a different skill taught during the week, and practice their reading fluency, and comprehension when working with the laptops. This will help maximize the time we have available and expose the students to working with computers.

These donations will not only help my students improve their reading fluency and comprehension but also expose them to technology, as most of them come from low-income households who do not have computers or laptops.
