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
Our students are in grades TK-5. We are a large public school on the border of the Mission District and Bernal Heights. We have students who came into the school year with a variety of skill levels and from a variety of backgrounds.
My students have a wide variety of needs and challenges, but also a wide variety of strengths!
There is a strong sense of community in this school and everyone here wants to see our children grow and learn.
My Project
I have purchased tablets with my own money and they are great! These tablets are great because students are able to use programs such as Raz-Kids. This is so helpful for engaging reluctant readers and I can track their progress. Their parents are also able to check their progress and see what they've been reading in school!
I don't have enough tablets for everyone to get a chance to use them every day.
The programs I used are especially great for my ELL students because they add visual and audio supports to their learning.
Furthermore, they are great for adding differentiated practice in math. There are a variety of math learning games that students love. They are truly some of the most useful tools in my classroom and more would be extremely appreciated.
More than half 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
