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 students are creative, energetic, and excited to learn new things and share their ideas with their classmates. Though our school is in an impoverished area, my students come ready to learn everyday. They are engaged and curious about the world around them.
My Project
The iPad will be used to share books and writing with students. Students are English learners who will enjoy and benefit from listening to a variety of literature. They will also be able to discuss and share details and events from the stories.
The iPad will allow the teacher to share real books over zoom.
Videos can sometimes lag and it is important that Kindergarten students become familiar with real books and how to read them. Animated books are fun and interesting but students need to become familiar with written words.
Nearly all 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
