FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Hart's classroom raised $633
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
I serve in a Title I priority middle school that services children from the highest poverty with many being newly immigrated students. I teach 8th-grade language arts to general education classes.
Funding in Title I schools is extremely budgeted and often holes are made in places to fill in other places that are of a higher need.
So often, the arts are one of the first things to go. I am currently completing my doctorate in education where my dissertation focuses on the importance of literacy skill sets among urban youth in preparation for career and college readiness.
I am seeking supplies to help support them in growing as independent readers in a variety of mediums including technology and media that mirror my findings from my research that I have done. I am working hard at creating an online classroom for my students to better support and reinforce skills taught in my classroom.
My Project
I am seeking a laptop for my classroom so that I will be able to create an interactive online classroom to better support my students outside of class. This laptop will allow me to not only maintain my online classroom but will also offer me chances to print my students’ work as well as create interactive lessons that I can share with them both online and in class using my SMART board. This laptop will help in supporting my students grow in their digital literacies and allow me to teach in a variety of medias that I am not currently capable of doing.
The computer will be used in the classroom to give students examples and interactive instruction via a SMART board and will be used to maintain our online google classroom that students can access both inside and outside of the classroom.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
