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

My students are always eager to learn and to explore new things. Technology at our school is very outdated and with all the e-budget cuts, we don't have the funding to purchase updated technology. I am a math teacher and try my best to design lessons that are engaging and also incorporate technology. The current computer I have in my classroom is a 2015 iMac that can no longer be updated and doesn't support many programs used for my lessons. I am requesting this computer so that I can design lessons for my students that use the tools that help them learn best in the classroom.

With this computer, you'll help us create a dynamic learning environment where students can explore their creativity and develop practical skills.

I also want to start a STEM club with students where we could learn coding, 2D design, 3D design, and work on other fun STEM activities. Having this computer will help a lot when working on coding, on 2D design, and on 3D design. Please help my students and me make this a reality and support our project.
