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 teach a wonderful group of special education kindergarten students with autism and other special needs in a NYC District 75 school. Due to the pandemic, we are completely remote - I am teaching from home while they are learning from their homes.

My Project

Through this time of distant learning, my school issued laptop that is ten years old has been barely able to keep up. I get lag time during start ups and while presenting there are many glitches. My students are getting too used to me complaining about my lack of computer continuity with sharing my lessons.

Having a new MacBook would be greatly appreciated by myself, my students and their families by allowing for seamless instruction in areas such as learning sight words and addition to up to twenty.

Thank you for your support!
