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 Students

Hello! I teach 6-8 ELL in Nebraska. We are 1 to 1 school which means that each student has an iPads. The students that I work with are learning English and one way that they practice is by using their iPads to type stories and letters. My students come from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Somalia, and the Congo. Giving them keyboarding skills will help them be successful in their future careers. With schools having many unknowns this year with COVID and students possibly being gone for weeks at a time, I need wired keyboards for my students to be able to practice their typing skills. I have watched my students transform from the shy, afraid to write more than a sentence types, into students who can’t stop writing in beautiful and flowing sentences and paragraphs. Typing is a life-long skill that will allow my students to achieve more in life.

Thank you for considering supporting me and my students!

My Project

These keyboards will allow my students to type effectively on an actual keyboard and not on the touch screen of their iPads.

By using the keyboards, they will be able to type better and they will also be able to practice their writing.

Both of these skills will help them greatly in the future.

These will help them to Learn English, and will provide them with a life-long skill. Giving my ELL students this opportunity will allow them to achieve better grades in high school, and maybe open up more doors for their futures.
