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

The students come from a very rough upbringing and live in a low income neighborhood. Considering the hard times they go through they are amazing kids. It excites me to know that I am helping them become more aware of what obstacles they may or may not face in the real world.

My Project

This tablet will allow me to pass the most current information on to students. The students will benefit from actually seeing the tasks at hand. I will be able to work with more ease with technical support for the students. I will be able to print adequate materials for better visual understanding for all of the students. They will better understand the importance of what is going on in the world today, by showing on more advanced software that is needed to keep them interested in learning. Thank you.
