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

Ever felt like you've tried every magic trick you can think of to engage and motivate your students to learn? I know I have! One good “trick” that my students are drawn to is a computer. Unfortunately, students get to learn from this wonderful tool once every two weeks.

I teach in a low socioeconomic community in a school where 98% of students receive free lunch.

My students LOVE technology! Most of my students are English Language Learners with limited resources at home and outdated technology at school. They share a computer lab with over 1,000 students and are limited to using computers about 30 minutes every two weeks. They get very disappointed when we lose our scheduled time due to other events taking place at the same time as our computer time.

My Project

Technology is an essential component in a child's education. A good way to expose them, daily, to today’s technology can be with the use of tablets. This will avoid the frustration of waiting for our turn to use the computer lab. It will enrich my students' learning via internet access and interactive educational programs. It will improve areas such as reading, writing, and much more. These tablets will open a new world of learning and will spark their curiosity even more.

Please help my students experience this awesome interactive educational tool.

It will enhance the achievement of all students while having fun! Just imagine all the magical moments and academic growth: fluency, phonics, reading comprehension, access to their favorite books/authors, and the endless research for new information. Together we can help my students experience the most up-to-date technology.
