Help me give my students 2 more laptops to have available for use in the classroom which will help them further connect learning mastery through technological resources.
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
When I look at my school population of students, the one thing I notice is how culturally diverse they are. I have students who come from Mexico, Africa, Asia, and Polynesian Islands. I work at a Title I school where 88% of the students qualify to receive free lunch.
Most of my students come from low-income homes where they experience many struggles daily.
But do they show this? No, they show me that the world will not bring them down and that they are excited to learn something new every day when they walk into my room. I love coming to work every day because I get to share my Spanish Language with my students. In return, they are teaching me about their personal culture.
My Project
In our classrooms today, we have the necessity to connect classroom learning with real-world skill development. By bringing technology through the use of computers, my students have the power to explore literary resources, build strong literacy mastery skills and create pathways to learning the Spanish Language at higher comprehension levels.
Donations of these laptop computers will add to my existing classroom resources which will further allow more of my students to have access to a world of information within the Spanish Language.
Technology is shaping our society and our classrooms need to be ready for the 21st-century learning opportunity.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
