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, English language learners, are a bright group of diverse learners. Despite coming from homes where their parents work multiple jobs and living in a high poverty low-income area, my students come to school every day eager to learn and be successful. My students are smart, kind, and helpful individuals that always go the extra mile to help the people around them. The students in our classroom take great pride in not only their work, but their classroom environment.

My Project

Using an iPad in the classroom is part of our daily life. From different literacy and STEAM apps, the possibilities and uses are endless.

The charging station, wall plugs, and cords will allow my students to charge their devices daily in our classroom while in turn helping ensure that they are ready and able to learn.

By having access to these items, students will be able to securely charge their devices in our classroom while still having access to technology to help further their education. Please help us power up!
