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 come through the door each day eager to learn, explore, and take on new challenges presented to them. I try to incorporate technology anywhere I can in my teaching, and allowing my students to create and explore with technology is important to me. My students are using technology to save trees (paper), keep organized, and stay actively engaged.

We lack a sufficient number of chargers and a system for storing our devices, resulting in confusion, frustration, and wasted instructional time.

We need to be able to keep everyone running! We also need a way to organize and store devices. The mail sorter and chargers will allow my first graders a way to organize, store, and charge their devices without damaging them. Finally, we want to be focused. Research shows that fluorescent lights are bad, bad, bad for anyone with focus issues. I want to filter our lights to be warmer and more friendly. The classroom environment sets the tone for learning. I want our environment to be one where each of my students feels calm, focused, and ready to learn.
