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
I attended this school from Kindergarten to 12th grade, and it is so awesome to have the chance to teach here as well. The majority of my students are low socioeconomic but they all LOVE technology. All of my kids work super hard and they make the best of every situation.
They love having fun, playing math games, and expressing their personalities in every assignment.
My school is a small rural community so technology is not always affordable. My kids come to school with so much energy and excitement to learn. I want to provide more opportunities for my students to learn in a technology rich environment.
My Project
I am a second year teacher ready to incorporate more technology in my classroom. Technology is a huge part of my students' lives and educational tools must change in my classroom to meet these needs.
These five Kindle Fire tablets will improve my student's school lives by providing them with fun opportunities to learn.
Third grade stresses learning multiplication facts, and they can use multiple apps on the tablets to practice their facts. My students also love the math game Prodigy. Prodigy is an engaging app because it requires students to solve math problems while having fun. The tablets will be used during station time each day and also for my fast finishers. These tablets will not only provide fun opportunities to learn but challenging ones as well.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
