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 first-grade students are English language learners living in a working-class neighborhood. They are sweet, caring, and excited learners. They are reading at different levels, some high and some low. With the right resources, my students would soar to great heights.

They are eager learners that enjoy sharing about themselves, technology, reading, math, and the world around them.

They are always ready for learning!

Help me build the best possible learning environment for these inquisitive little ones by providing them the best digital learning experience possible!

My Project

Currently, my class has outdated technology. While we are trying to learn in our virtual classroom, our technology crashes and lags regularly, which means my students miss out on valuable instruction.

This new faster MacBook Pro will ensure my students have a state-of-the-art multi-sensory learning experience.

They will not only interact with learning videos, interactive media, and digital books, they will do so with speed and reliability. They will not have to deal with the crashing and slow rebooting that they are experiencing now. They have enough else to worry about.
