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

I have not met my students this year. However, I can describe the community I will be serving. Brookline Elementary is an urban school located in the south side of Houston. We serve a diverse community that is predominately Hispanic of limited resources. I serve in a Bilingual class where my students become fluent in English and Spanish.

The students in my class are hard workers.

They have a natural curiosity that I will grow. They are special because despite challenges they are always ready to learn and have fun.

My Project

I intend to use this tablet to start a literacy center in my class. The tablet will allow my students to explore a wide array of eBooks that are available online. Currently, my students use old desktops to access these book. However, these computers are quickly becoming obsolete and students are limited on how they are able to interact with the applications.

A new tablet in my class will upgrade my literacy center.

It will allow my students to read interactive books at their specific reading level. Additionally, I will be able to monitor my students' comprehension and improve their reading skills.
