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 students are curious, motivated and thoughtful learners! The majority are ENLs and special need students from low-income families who come into our classrooms every day with the eagerness of becoming feature leaders, scientists, artists, etc.

They are big dreamers and believe that they can make a difference and achieve their goals if the support and the opportunity are given to them.

They love to read, write and draw, do math, and do hands-on and movement activities!

The majority of my students are English language learners and students with disabilities, who require exposures to the best educational experiences; therefore, hands-on and realia are a must in my classroom. Many of my students struggle to understand and grasp concepts and they need to be exposed to visual and concrete samples for them to get it.

Each student in my classroom is unique and it is my responsibility as their teacher to find the best and most effective way to help them achieve their potential. Every donation makes a difference in my students' lives. I look forward to creating projects that will make our classroom a joyful learning environment.

My Project

Unfortunately, my classroom does not always have the supplies we need. If afforded, the opportunity to receive a MacBook Pro laptop for our classroom, our online and in-person experiences can be enhanced tremendously for all my scholars.

There are endless learning activities and opportunities we will be able to accomplish with a new modern laptop.

I will be able to communicate and teach more effectively while distance teaching/learning. Since it is necessary to have modern/advanced technology in order to run all of the programs that will help teach and engage my students.

Also, I will be able to create innovative lessons, engaging assignments, virtual trips and continue to meet with the students through Google Classroom.The Mac Book Pro will enhance the quality of videos and instruction during online learning because it will enable me to create the best and most visually, aesthetically, and academically pleasing and educational content for my students.

Additionally, when teaching returns to fully in-person, the MacBook Pro will be used in our classroom to create projects, to help students research topics of interests, editing and publishing their assignments, for educational games, student collaborations, etc.

Every donation makes a difference in my students' lives. I look forward to creating projects that will make our physical and virtual classroom a joyful and engaging learning environment. Thank you!
