Building Tomorrow's Future Work Force With SEL and Computer Literacy
Help me give my students 21st learning skill opportunities: opening eyes and doors to the possibilities to more versatile job opportunities with ipads for school and home usage.
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
Every day, energetic 2nd graders greet each other as they enter the classroom ready to learn; school is their only private space in which they have ownership of, feel safe, and are a valued member of a community.
Most of the students come from low-income families. Often times, many are close to homelessness, have social emotional trauma. This makes school during this unique time and with our challenges even more important for their stability.
Although A-3 second grade students are faced with so many unique obstacles, it does not stop them from coming to class ready to learn, and build higher level thinking skills. Many students are from households which do not have parents with computer literacy skills in this social economic and demographic range.
These students are amazing children that could offer society so much more with STEAM collaborative blended learning challenges, coding, typing, math, SEL, and language arts digital learning skills. The goal is to be able to provide them with 21st Century skills and computer literacy opportunities to aid them in successful futures and versatile job opportunities.

The goal is to be able to provide students with 21st Century skill building blocks needed in today's work force and computer literacy needed to aid them in successful futures. Thus, opening eyes and doors to the possibilities to more versatile job opportunities
As I said, these students have great potential.
They are more accustom to productive struggle and overcoming challenges and tend to work harder.
Students will be able to have equal access to technology if sickness excludes them from class by having these two iPads. This is due to limited school technology being checked out to distance learning students and limited iPads in school being shared by six teachers.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
