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 students love to talk! They share ideas about the world and how their lives connect to it.In helping to create an identity for students as Scientists and deep thinkers, I'd like to put into their hands the easy-to-use and creative tools that iPads provide.

The students would like the power of such tools as Apple Clips, GarageBand, and iMovie to create displays of their learning that would be shared with the school community.

As an Apple Teacher, I have studied ways to make learning fun and engaging for students, so that they move beyond consuming information to creating it!
