Protect My Students’ Learning Tools

Help me give my students some protection for Amazon Fire Tablets they’re using to translate their class activities into their native languages. I’d love to protect these investments in their learning!

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 Project

My students received a donation of Amazon Fire Tablets which they use for translating their English work and lessons into Spanish and Portuguese which are their native languages. They are excited to learn as they’re learning more and more English. I try to translate from English as well as I can, but they can use these tablets to translate. My students are young and as much as they try to be careful, I still feel the need to protect these tablets which the students are using to make their learning easier. I’m requesting cases for these tablets so they can last a few years or as long as they’ll be current. I’m asking for a keyboard when it’s necessary to type in certain native languages.
