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 love my students for their boundless curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, especially when it comes to hands-on projects and technology. They are eager to explore, create, and innovate, making every day in the classroom an adventure.

Their diverse backgrounds and unique perspectives bring a richness to our learning environment that inspires me to find new ways to engage and challenge them.

The resources I'm requesting will significantly enhance our learning experiences. The Bamboo Charging Station will keep our devices organized and ready for use, ensuring that every student has access to the tools they need for digital learning. The Portable Charging and Storage Cabinet will allow us to charge and store multiple devices simultaneously, supporting collaborative work and ensuring that all students can participate fully in our tech-driven activities. Additionally, the USB Charging Hub will enable us to efficiently charge our classroom robots, which can then be securely stored in bins, making them easily accessible for our robotics projects.

My goal for this project is to create a more organized, efficient, and secure learning environment where students can thrive. These resources will empower my students to dive deeper into their studies, particularly in areas like robotics and digital literacy, where hands-on experience is key. What makes my students special is their passion for learning and their determination to succeed, no matter the challenges. With these tools, I can help them reach their full potential and prepare them for the future.
