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.

Please help us become tech savvy....I am a fourth grade teacher in Chicago and I would love to enhance my students' technical capabilities. I need your help to do this. The ELMO is a great visual learning tool that I know will help every student learn. Due to the many budget cuts in the Chicago school system I am hoping you consider donating to this great cause. Every child has a learning style....many of them are visual learners. By donating you will be helping the 26 students I have in my classroom. There are so many ways in which we can utilize this tool. For example, in writing how great will it be for my students to see their work on the big screen! There is nothing better than showing off a great piece of writing. And in math--the students will be able to do work at their seats, show it on the Elmo and have immediate feedback! Every child deserves the chance to learn, and sometimes cool tools, like the ELMO, can help them do just that. Please help us!! Thank you.
