FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Matheson's classroom raised $1,230
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 Project
Help me give my students with disabilities the opportunity to create their best work with the incredibly versatile Macbook, so they may share their accomplishments and ideas with the world.
Research has proven that technology can be used as both Assistive Technology and instructional technology because students with disabilities can download apps that provide visual, auditory and tactile learning opportunities, but could also be used as learning tools for any student
Many of my students are also faced with the challenge of being immigrants and or having parents that are immigrants. The vast majority of my students also live in homes without computers and tablets. Although some have access to smartphones, they often do not have internet and or wi-fi at their homes. They deserve to work with state of the art technology in the classroom just like everyone else.
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
