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
The 2020-2021 school year will be a new experience for my incoming 9th graders as well as myself, even as I have been teaching for over 15 years. I co-teach over 150 New York City students who are curious, excited and nervous about what this new school year will bring.
Over half of my students have Individualized Education Plans, meaning they have a wide-range of special needs which require additional support.
As we begin this new school year, with both in-person and online learning, I am excited to meet my students and begin this new journey together.
My Project
The Samsung Tablet will prove an important teaching tool this year, in particular, as I have over 150 New York City students who are either learning from home or through a hybrid model of in-person/at-home learning.
The tablet will allow me to reach, teach and communicate with students and their families from my school building, my home, and even on my commute!
The abilities of a tablet will easily allow me to model lessons such as note-taking, close reading and annotation of a text, and allow me to see and speak with my students via various online meeting platforms.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
