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

Push my instruction over the digital divide! Help our diverse classroom of eager learners remain engaged and excited during instruction!

We are a diverse class of third graders striving for academic excellence in a Title One school and low income neighborhood.

We are English Language Learners as well as fluent speakers. We are GATE students as well as RSP students. We are from different family structures and different cultures. And we need your help!

My Project

Our classroom needs inspiring technology to ensure that ALL students stay engaged and enthusiastically participate! With a classroom Apple MacBook and portable iPhone player, my students will be encouraged to actively participate throughout the school day with music, videos, movie software, and more.

Please push my instruction over the digital divide into the 21st Century.

Help my students achieve excellence and become literate not only through reading and math, but with engaging technology. These children deserve it!
