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

A student knocked off my computer and the screen broke. I am stuck using the desktop and there is no replacement. This MacBook will enable me to not only prepare my lessons better but can be used in the classroom on a daily basis by both myself, and my students.

Students can use the MacBook to look up information to questions they have during class or help with homework when staying after school.

It will also allow me to access key resources that will help my students who learn visually by connecting it to the Promethean board. It can also be used when conferencing with students one-on-one or in small groups.

Everything is online now. I grade online and really need this to perform my duties as a teacher to better serve my students!
