This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
As a teacher in a low-income school, my students are faced with many economic and emotional challenges both in and out of the classroom. My campus is a Title I school where the majority of the students are considered at risk. My class consists of bilingual students that are learning to speak, write and spell in English and Spanish. Although, many of my students struggle with the English language they come to school every day eager to learn. Despite their challenges, they work hard to achieve academic success!
My Project
My bilingual students need iPad's to help them achieve academic success in reading, speaking, math, technology skills and spelling in both Spanish and English. My campus has limited resources for bilingual students. With the addition of these iPad's, I will be able to find an unlimited amount of resources for my students. My students will be able to use the iPad's in order to learn how to write and read in the English language. They will use the iPad's to read electronic books on their reading levels. They will improve their spelling skills in English and Spanish by playing spelling games on the iPad. The iPad's will also be used to practice grade level math skills through interactive games. Not to mention, the amount of joy and fun my students will experience from this updated use of technology within our class.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
