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

Student population at our middle school is very diverse. About 80% of students are receiving a free or discounted lunch. I teach science and English to a block of STEAM magnet students and a block of students from our Korean Language Immersion class. I want my students to be able to master technology that will help them compete in our technology dependent world!

My students are surrounded technology, and I want them to manipulate and use it to solve real world problems.

I want my students to be the innovators of the future!

My Project

During this time of crisis, my students rely on me being able to make online lessons, videos, and materials. I can't do this effectively with low memory, a slow processor, and a 13 inch screen. The computer I am requesting will allow me to open several programs at the same time, hold virtual meetings with students, and make videos, presentations, and lessons smoothly.

We don't know how long the quarantine will last, but we can give quality education to our students.

Students need to have lessons and help that are timely and effective, you help will make this possible.
