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

Technology is awesome but only if it is charged and working properly.

More then half my students come from low income households.

Unfortunately because of that, their experiences are limited. I would like to be able to offer them the possibility to participate, practice and learn about technology in a fun and hands-on way.

My Project

Everything is better in color, so we are asking for ink for our color printer. We print pictures and label our classroom to make it look nice and organized. We can also make art work on our computers and print them out in color. How cool is that? We also need a hot glue gun and glue sticks to help us put together many of our art projects. Lastly, we need a convenient and organized way to charge our tablets and chrombooks that the district has giving us this year. Technology doesn't work well when it isn't charged, and this charging station is the perfect way to teach our students to keep them safe and fully charged.

Please help our students start have a great Kindergarten year.

Thank you for your consideration and support. Our classroom loves and appreciates Donorschoose and all its sponsors.
