In Need of an iPad!

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

With an iPad, I can display presentations while monitoring my students’ engagement and behavior. I will also be able to use the iPad in small groups in Social Studies and any ELL classroom. It will act as a portable whiteboard, monitor progress, and will free me up to be out with students instead of tied to the board.

It will also help me provide individualized instruction during small groups and one-on-one interventions.

My students will have access to a wide variety of apps that will help strengthen their specific needs.
