My Project
I teach fourth grade immigrant students from various countries. My students speak lots of different languages and our school is very diverse and multicultural. My students are in need of an iPad that can be used for computer science activities.
Corita Kent states, "Nothing is a mistake.
There's no win or fail. There's only make."
This quote resonates with me because it is a teacher's responsibility to spark and fuel creative thought into our children.
We need to create inquisitive computer programming digital mindstorms of tomorrow who will strive to achieve in all areas of technology. We need to break the barriers and "level the playing field," by encouraging young girls to pursue careers in this field. We need all young children to become active participants in this digital world. This iPad can also be to play online games in financial literacy to reinforce financial literacy concepts. The iPad will allow students to learn about STEM and to be exposed to computer science. Let's welcome my students’ back-to-school year with a sparkling iPad. I believe coding and teaching financial literacy is a path for everyone. Let's make my vision of creating computer programming and digital mindstorms of tomorrow a reality today.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
