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

Students are being raised in the technology era. I am lucky to work in a district that strives to ensure that technology is part of each and every classroom. As teachers, we need to ensure that each student is prepared to live in this digital age.

While our district provides us with these amazing tools, my grade level is in need of headphones for each student to have in the classroom.

Fortunately, my district provides the students with personal iPads via VILS. This allows students to access their online programs that support our curriculum. Headphones will allow the students to be focused on their lessons with out the noise distractions from others.

In addition, a moveable desk will provide the opportunity for me to have an area for science experiment demonstrations for all of my class to see first hand. This is something I have wished for for years and know this will be a valuable addition to my instruction. Thank you for your consideration and support to create a learning environment where students can achieve their full potential.
