Celebrating 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 Project
My students are needing help learning to read. Listening to good models of readers helps students be able to be more fluent themselves. They get bored quickly and great narration can model what readers should sound like. I want to help my students to learn to read this year. An iPad and case will help me reach this goal.
iPads support features like text-to-speech, speech-to-text, and guided access, which are especially helpful for students with special needs or learning differences.
An iPad would give students more practice with the books and more exposure to classic literature at home. It would also give different types of students access to learning that is necessary for them to be successful.
