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 Project

I am requesting essential technology tools that will enhance my ability to create an inclusive and engaging educational environment for exceptional student education (ESE). I am in need of a personal laptop for Professional Development and to attend virtual professional development sessions, Zoom meetings, and create interactive educational content.

A reliable, personal laptop with the capability to run applications like Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Canva will help unlock the full potential of creating tailored lessons for exceptional students.

I am also in need of Bluetooth headphones for privacy and concentration to ensure privacy during virtual meetings and help maintain focus. Exceptional Student Education requires personalized attention and tailored resources. By providing the necessary technology tools, I can create a more inclusive and effective learning environment. This project will empower me to better support exceptional students, ensuring that they have equal access to quality education.
