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

This is a classroom filled with very special students. Our school is located in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood of low income families. These kindergarten children come to class with diverse needs and abilities. Some are autistic, others are learning disabled, and all of them need focused instruction so that they will have the foundation that they need to be successful in school.

My students WANT to learn and they are excited by the opportunities that are given to them.

They love being able to interact, and they come alive when they see that they are successful. They are eager to please, but many of them have trouble connecting socially. When they have a way of demonstrating their learning they can't wait to shine!

My Project

My students are all special needs and they are at the beginning of their educational path. They get the most excited about learning when they are able to be individually accountable, or said another way, that they are able to see their growth and progress.

The iPad Minis will take my students on a technological journey of learning - mastering their ABC's, using the scientific method, math skills, language arts and poems, and discovering a better way of writing via the keyboard.

My students will engage in learning in a way that is individual and exciting. They will be better equipped to take care of their future.

Developing creative minds to stir interest in their learning is a challenge for any teacher, but to embark in changing the way a kindergartener views his/her future for the better is rewarding. The donations to this project will see to it that my kindergartners have an advantage of becoming very knowledgeable and productive citizens.
