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 am a teacher of 6th-8th-grade students. All of my students are diverse learners. They have special needs ranging from mild learning disabilities to social/emotional difficulties. I teach math, science, and writing. My kids are from a working class, low-income area. We are a very family-oriented school and have great family involvement.

My kids benefit greatly from the enrichment that extra materials provide in the classroom.

We can grow in our learning if we just have the materials that we need.

My Project

Do you love math and science? Do you love technology? I know my students do. For this project, I am asking for 3 touchscreen Chromebooks for my special education classroom. These are Chromebooks that can be used by touching the screen. This makes using technology easier for struggling students. We will use these to access math websites and do research for science projects. This will help my classroom on its way to becoming a one-to-one Chromebook classroom (meaning I will have a Chromebook for each student to use). My students love using Chromebooks for math and science. I love when we have resources we need.
