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

My students work hard and they are eager to explore, discover and learn. Technology is very limited at our school, but our students are eager to learn about everything. Many students don't have access to technology at home. At school, we aim to provide students the inspiration to be lifetime learners in any area of their choice by offering them the technological tools and skills they need via hands-on opportunities to develop 21st-century skills.

I am requesting a color printer so we can print color copies of learning practice and resources.

Teaching fifth graders has made me realize that the more fun something looks, the more students are engaged in the learning.

My classroom walls have all color resources to make sure my students like what they see. Color really does bring attention to the resource I strategically place either on the bulletin which they pass by or the wall outside where they line up. A color printer will allow me to continue providing my students a more engaging and memorable learning experience. Please support my students with a new printer in our classroom!
