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
Our school is a small school within a comprehensive school. My students are smart, resilient and hard working students. My school is a Title I school and 100% of my students qualify for free or reduced lunch. Since last semester when we went to distance learning, my students have been trying their best to complete all assignments and tasks and are trying their best to learn given their circumstances.
These past months I have realized that distance learning cannot be accomplished unless teachers have the effective technology that also compliments the learning management system that the district uses.
The majority of my students don't have the resources and educational support they need at home and they rely solely on what the school and their teachers provided. Being able to provide the best education possible to all my students is my number one priority but in order for me to be able to do that I need to have multiple screens available to be able to not only teach my lessons but also provide feedback and support for all my students.
My Project
This keyboard will be used for to be able to use the iPad as a computer and have another device available during distance learning. It will make creating interactive lessons on the iPad easier. Once we return to in person teaching students will be able to use it during class when they don't have their device with them to use with the iPad pro.
My students deserve to have the best educational experience even if it is virtually and having access to this keyboard for the iPad will allow me to provide better lessons and learning opportunities for my students.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
