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

Do you remember the first time you used a computer? My thirty students are energetic, active, and enthusiastic learners who absorb new information like little sponges, and they absolutely LOVE technology!

I teach full day Kindergarten at a high poverty school in Southern Nevada.

All students receive free breakfast and lunch and, unfortunately, lack some of life's most basic necessities. The majority of students who attend my school are English Language Learners and speak little to no English when first entering Kindergarten. Even though these students face many challenges they are very kind, caring, polite, and hard working. My class is filled with the most friendly, lovable, respectful kids you will ever meet!

My Project

We are requesting a Mac laptop, because this computer is filled with so many valuable learning tools! My students would be able to record themselves singing songs and reading stories, and turn this into CDs. We could make and edit class plays and movies, and turn pictures into slide shows and collages. This will give us a unique opportunity to share the wonderful school experiences with our families. The MacBook Pro offers endless possibilities for my students to create and enjoy projects that are educational and fun.

Your help will allow my kindergarten kids to enter into an exciting new world of technology.

Best of all, this computer will benefit students in my classroom for years to come. Thank you for making it possible for my young learners to continue to be inspired, motivated, and engaged through technology!
