Get A Mouse In Every House

Help me give my students a better way to navigate virtual learning. I would like to fund a wireless mouse for each student. Plus help the teacher navigate the lessons with a mouse pad and wrist support.

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 Students

My students are excited and energetic typical 11-year-olds, except they are not. My students come from very diverse and economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Many of my students are bilingual; they speak English as a second language.

In our class, we utilize collaboration and peer learning/teaching as tools to build the skills of all of the students.

We are a part of a math department that is proud to implement and focus on collaborative classroom structures to increase engagement and learning. The work we do extends beyond developing math skills into building real-world skills such as teamwork, building relationships, and utilizing resources. In addition, there is a strong focus on building confidence and developing a growth mindset.

My Project

Imagine working on a computer all day every day using an outdated mouse pad on a small Chromebook. If that sounds like torture, then please help deliver a mouse to each of my students' houses, so they can work more freely and easily.

In their school tasks, my students must scroll, resize objects, move things around, and sometimes even write on the screen.

I see them struggle to complete these tasks because it requires a lot of coordination to do on the Chromebook mouse pads. That is why I want to help them with a simple solution- a mouse.

I am certain using a mouse will help improve navigation and also make students less frustrated and more willing to complete the tasks to their best ability.
