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

I teach at a Title I school, where my students come from low socio-economic backgrounds. The majority of my students are on free or reduced lunch, some have learning disabilities and many are English language learners.

Despite these challenges, they still come to school eager to learn.

I am excited that I get to witness my students learning and growing!

Everyday when I come to school, I get asked so many questions from my little, eager-to-learn students. Because most of my students are English Language Learners, they are risk-takers in the classroom and are always trying new things... It is inspiring!

My Project

Learning is a life-long journey! Students can take what they learn in the classroom and apply it to real life. With these laptops, my students will be able to do just that. For example, students can learn about the habitat in Florida compared to other habitats around the world. They can research different ways that students in other countries do long division in school. And those are just a couple of examples!

Using technology helps students learn about what happened yesterday, current news and research for the future.

I think that allowing students time to explore the technology resources available to them is something that is beyond the instructional realm of a classroom teacher. I want my students to be able to explore things that are beyond the walls of the classroom and our school.

We will use the laptops as a way to reach out to the world and learn all that we can. The students will use them in groups to complete research projects and individually to practice, learn and grow.
