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

My classes are made up of a combination of students which includes students with English limitations, as well as students with learning disabilities which benefit from differentiated instruction. My school is in a suburban neighborhood. These students are not motivated to learn math and think they are just not good at it.

I would like to motivate my students and make them be successful in math.

These students can be motivated by the use of a laptop. The use of computers can enhance their learning and motivation. Some of these students never get to use or play with a computer and being able to use it in the class will motivate them to learn.

My Project

This Apple laptop will make a difference in my students' lives and education. Many of them feel that they are not good in math and can't do it. This tool will make them change the way they feel about math. This tool being vibrant and speedy will capture their attention, motivate them, and engage them in mathematics. With so many available resources online, my students will have real time data at their fingertips and software that will diagnose and target their learning needs. I could have them work individually or in groups that will allow them to share the laptop as they collaborate with each other.
