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

I teach a diverse range of seventh graders. I have students who require remediation as well as those who need enrichment.

My students are incredibly motivated and persistent in their learning, especially in science.

Even during these difficult times, it is my goal to provide top-quality instruction that will meet the needs of my diverse learners.

My Project

At this time, I would benefit from having a more advanced iPad to create and deliver lessons and instructional videos for STEM class.

This iPad will allow me to continue providing my students with access to digital resources and content that make STEM learning more engaging and fun.

Students will have access to interactive digital learning activities for STEM class. Students can work to complete organizers and visuals.

They can also work to complete STEM challenges and virtual simulations on AmplifyScience (a new phenomena-based STEM curriculum that utilizes interactive digital tools to empower students to think, read, write, and argue like real scientists and engineers).
