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

Help my young learners develop science and math skills by providing resources that they can use to understand the basic concepts behind numbers, quantities, addition, subtraction, life and environmental science and more.

I teach a transitional kindergarten (TK) class for our school.

This is a new grade level in California, developed for "young" five year olds to help bridge the gap between preschool and academic kindergarten. I teach at a wonderful, multicultural, public school located in the San Fernando Valley. We are a high poverty school, and many of my students come from economically disadvantaged homes. My class includes students that are both English and non-English speakers, as well as students with disabilities. All of my students are anxious and excited about learning and coming to school.

My Project

In part 2 of this project, I am requesting an iPad that will provide fun apps the children can use to learn science and math concepts. "Count Up to 1 Million" and "Ecosystems HD" are two such apps. These apps teach math and science in fun ways and were developed for young children. The iPad can be used in so many wonderful ways to help students learn. It is my goal to eventually have a set of six in the classroom to establish a technology center for a group of students to work independently on math or science apps while I am working with other students. If funded, this iPad would be the fourth for this center. In addition to the iPad, I am requesting protective accessories to keep the iPad safe because it is used by little hands. I am also requesting a connector so we can also run the iPad apps on our Smart board.

By funding this proposal, you will be giving my students an iPad that they can use to learn science and math concepts.

The iPad can be used over and over with students in the future. Chase is generously offering to help fund projects that promote math and science. With your generosity, you can help bring this wonderful technology to my classroom. Thank you.
