This project is fully funded
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 Students
My students are very tech savvy for six year olds. They yearn for fast paced, fun apps to learn and grow. They are children with an awareness of the new age of technology. Hands-on is the way to go! My students will meet and surpass the common core state standards, and will step up to 2nd grade.
My students consist of both low income, general and special education, first grade students.
They are like little sponges that are ready to absorb what you expose them to. The students currently have two desktop computers in the classroom, that constantly have problems. They do not have the opportunity to go to the computer lab, so if they do not get a chance in class to go on the computer, they have very little exposure. We were very fortunate to get a project funded for iPads. It would great to have a charging and storage cabinet to place the iPads to keep them secured as well as charged for the following day's lesson.
My Project
My class was recently funded for a few iPads. Having a charging and storage station for the iPads will give a routine for continuous charging and safe storage. They will be used to enhance lessons through technology, allowing independent and collaborative research. This will be particularly useful with students that can struggle with traditional paper and pencil activities.
Our students are "digital natives".
They have never lived in a time when technology was not at the forefront of education. Having the equipment to use to support their learning in school is a priority. When managed well, technology can be a critical part of the learning process for all students. This cart will allow for the effective and constructive use of the iPads.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
