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

Despite living in a low-income/high poverty area, my kiddos still deserve the best technology and resources the world has to offer!

I want my students to know that they have what they need, when they need it, to help them learn and grow!

My students are the future of the world, and I want to impact their future by ensuring they have the tools they need to be successful. I can't express to you in a limited number of characters how wonderful and deserving each one of my learners are.

My Project

Merge Cubes are the world's first holographic object that students can actually hold! By downloading the corresponding app on the Apple iPad, my students will be able to learn and explore in all new ways!

This combination of technology will allow my students to experience the world around them without ever leaving the classroom!

My students would be able to "travel" into the solar system, open a heart in the human body, and so much more through the Merge Cubes and the iPad!

In addition, the Apple iPad would also double-function as a mobile whiteboard that the whole class would be able to see projected.

This mobile whiteboard would encourage the students to get engaged and lead our class toward more math successes!
