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

I teach an incredible group of curious and creative students who love exploring technology and hands-on learning. They thrive when given the opportunity to experiment, design, and problem-solve, especially in STEM activities. My students are eager to build and code, but they need the right tools to bring their ideas to life.

With an iPad, my students will have access to essential apps for coding robots, designing digital art, and exploring engineering concepts.

This technology will allow them to program our classroom robots with greater precision, create stunning graphic designs, and document their projects in real time. It will also support students with different learning styles, providing a more interactive and engaging experience.

My goal for this project is to foster innovation and creativity while strengthening my students’ problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. This iPad will be a powerful tool in helping them develop 21st-century skills, preparing them for a future when technology and creativity go hand in hand.

What makes my students special is their passion for learning and their excitement for hands-on experiences. They are eager to take on challenges and collaborate on projects that push their creativity. With your support, they’ll have the opportunity to explore, create, and grow in ways that wouldn’t be possible without this resource.
