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 fourth-grade scholars are inquisitive, hard-workers, and quite humorous (We laugh a lot throughout the day!). When challenges arise, and every day they do, we persevere and humor (and sometimes a quick, little dance) is always part of it!

Some weeks ago, I finished my teacher-parent conferences, and some parents asked if students could take their devices home to continue working on their activities/lessons; hence, adding an additional device with the liberty to take it home would be extremely helpful for my students.

This request will complement my other two iPad projects. With this additional iPad, my students will be able to continue working with their math, coding, science, or reading at home; it will also be used in our classroom during our weekly STEM work. Just recently, I acquired five iPads, thanks to wonderful donors on this platform. My classroom is divided into 6 teams, and I want to provide an iPad to each of them; thus, this proposal will supply my students with the 6th iPad needed in order for each team to have at least one so they can keep working collaboratively.

Thank you for supporting my scholars at home and at school to continue developing their skills in science, technology, engineering, or math. We are fortunate to have you on our side, and thank you for your support in this new year!
