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

Our school is located in an area of low economic development. Over 90% of our students are growing up in poverty. Books and resources are scarce in their homes. But they come to school every day eager to learn and to apply their new skills.

My students love to learn and are full of questions about the world.

We read stories every day and one of my goals for them is to foster a passion for reading and for books. They love getting to know new characters and for many of them, it is their favorite part of the day. My students are the kindest, most curious, and fun class ever!

My Project

When our school went virtual in March we gave all our laptops and PCs out to students and their families to encourage participation in virtual learning. Half our students are back in person and we have no computers in the classroom for students to use.

There are so many educational programs the students can log into during workstation time.

We need a laptop so students can get that experience in the classroom. They log into reading and math programs as an intervention to work on building basic skills they need help with.

A laptop would help us tremendously in filling the gaps left by everything going on in this pandemic. We need to get these kiddos back on track and this technology would help them be so much more successful!
