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 students are 3rd and 4th graders with great potential and an interest in learning through technology. All of my students have ASD otherwise known as Autism Spectrum Disorder. They attend a specialized school to meet their diverse needs and are in a classroom with a small adult-to-student ratio. As students with more significant needs, they often struggle with expressing their needs and wants, using appropriate social behaviors and engaging in activities that are not of their preference. Despite the challenges my students face, they are learners, just like the rest of us! My students make their interests known and are always up for showing the world who they are.

I thank the teachers who took the time to believe in me, and just as they did, I believe in my own students.

I believe in their potential and certainly in their capacity to learn through their interests. This year and all those that follow, I hope to meet my students where they are and to use their interest in technology to promote both their learning in the classroom and their overall independence in the world.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I hope to bring into my classroom will serve students in areas of learning and in my assessment of their understanding. With the iPads, I can provide students greater access to varying content and skills that will promote them to be better readers and problem-solvers.

My students love using the smartboard in my classroom but unfortunately, it is a distraction to other students if they are to use it during rotating center activities.

Thus, in having individual iPads, students will be able to use the technology center more efficiently and have opportunities to build skills from interactive books, games, videos, and more.
