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 a wonderful group of children. They love coming to school each and every day. They work hard in all academic areas. They are struggling learners who put forth a tremendous amount of effort to excel.

My students are wonderful and they love to learn!

They try so hard all day long, and have made such amazing improvements this year and would love to continue to make improvements. They look forward to school each and every day and every subject is exciting for them.

My Project

This iPad will make such a tremendous difference in my classroom. As we prepare for the New York State Math State Exam we found incredible math websites that are actually geared toward the math exam. These websites provide amazing examples and practice for the math exam that would be so helpful to us.

The math exam is a difficult one and with this iPad, we would receive so much hands-on math practice with difficult common core related math concepts.

This iPad would make such a difference in helping us to achieve the VERY BEST that we can! Please consider us as you read through this proposal!
