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

The use of computers, whiteboards, and projectors is a daily activity in my classroom, especially with science. The new curriculum uses slides to show videos and display information and tasks. The computer that I was using to connect to my whiteboard and projector is outdated and is no longer updating and compatible. I need a new computer to keep up with the world and my students.

By donating to my project, you will not only help increase student attention and focus, You will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

You will allow me to post daily lessons to google classroom for students to review work and complete assignments to share in class. It will also enable me to show videos and lessons in Spanish for or non-English speaking students to learn the content with better understanding.

Having updated technology will increase their interest, give them the visuals they need, and increase their desire to learn
