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 Students
I teach at a Title I school where the majority of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and go home to non-English speaking families. Some of our students are the only English speaking people in their families.
Our school has students who are homeless.
We have many students who live at the shelter for abused and battered women and children. Many other students are living with two or three families in small apartments because they are homeless.
I make it my goal every year to supply my students with the supplies they need and hands-on experiences that they wouldn't get elsewhere. It’s very easy to tie a project or activity into the standards the kids are supposed to be learning. By getting our hands on what we’re learning, we learn even more. I love it when my students finish an activity and say what a great time they had and how much they learned. Our students are very bright and deserve every opportunity they get.
My Project
We are so fortunate that our district has provided each student with a laptop to use for their learning. We have a few reading and math online programs that help our students with their individual needs. Having wired mice will help the students navigate through the programs with ease.
The wired mice are easily plugged into their laptops and we won't have to worry about keeping track of small USB components or batteries.
Being able to easily move through their math and reading lessons with the wired mice will help students learn and prepare for the next grade level.
Nearly all 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
