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.

Let students see the world. I teach fourth grade at a low-income, high-need community in an urban district.

Students need a way to see the world. Most students don't have computers at home to help them explore the topics we cover in school.

Students will be able to see and explore topics that we discuss in the classroom. We'll be able to hook up our netbook to a LCD projector and explore the topics as a class.

You will make it possible for my students to explore topics outside of their community. Most of these students don't have computers at home and with your help you will encourage them to use and explore with technology.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
