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

My school has a very diverse population of children. Most come from single parent families and are living at or below the poverty level. Most students recieve free lunch at school and some can't afford basic school supplies. The come to school at a disadvance, some have no access to books and no access to technology. The children in my school are eager to learn but need more resources to fuel their interests and encourage deeper learning. Supplies are not plentiful and children need more than notebooks and pencils.

My Project

My students love when I incorporate technology into my daily lessons. Their eyes light up when the smart board goes on and all students are engaged. The only problem is that they all want to come up and get a chance to use it and it's not always possible.

My students will be more focused and engaged in learning if they had laptops to complete work on.

In this world of technology it would be ideal if I had laptops in my room for students to work on group project and research topics for new learning. Currently my classroom only has on desktop computer and it's not easy to rotate children to use it. These laptops would make a world of difference in my classroom. They could help with reading, writing, researching and even communicating work with parents.
