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

My third graders are always excited and ready to learn. With them, there is never a dull moment. I look forward to seeing them every day. My favorite thing about my students is their ability to help others. My students know the meaning of a team and teamwork. They always help each other out.

My Project

I am asking for an iPad to help students in reading and math and other learning platforms. We can use it directly in my classroom during independent station time or at home to complete fun assignments. This technology will motivate our learners and serve our community as well.

This iPad will help each student be able to take common assessments as well as work independently with other programs.

Currently, our iPads are obsolete and the batteries are dying. We are in need of a new iPad to be placed in a working station so students can learn independently while I work with others in a small group.

I would love to see our young scholars motivated to learn and complete the work by themselves. Your support is much appreciated.
