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 Project
An iPad will transform the way I support my students by giving me the flexibility to move around the classroom while still projecting and modeling work. Instead of being tethered to a document camera, I’ll be able to provide real-time feedback, display student work instantly, and engage small groups more effectively. This mobility will allow me to better facilitate independent and collaborative learning while ensuring that every student gets the support they need.
My goal for this project is to enhance student engagement and maximize instructional time by making learning more interactive and responsive.
With an iPad, I can seamlessly transition between modeling, circulating, and working with small groups—creating a dynamic and student-centered classroom.
What makes my students special is their curiosity, perseverance, and excitement for learning. They thrive when given the right tools and opportunities to engage in meaningful, hands-on experiences. By bringing an iPad into our classroom, I can better meet their diverse needs, celebrate their progress, and create a more personalized and effective learning environment.
