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
Every minute,every second technology is increasing by leaps and bounds. To be successful students must be able to navigate the information super highway effectively. Without access to current technology, my students lack the skills necessary to compete successfully in an ever changing world.
My students attend a public school in California.
The school is located in an economically disadvantaged community plagued by gangs and crime. Despite their home situation, my students are fun and energetic six and seven year olds. They are eager and seek every opportunity to learn.
My Project
I am requesting a Nexus tablet to be used in my classroom during small group intervention. The tablet will enable me to teach my students how to use technology and to access sites for increased learning opportunities. I only have 2 working computers in my classroom at this time. This leaves me with very little opportunity to provide access to technology and its various uses for my students. The Nexus tablet would enable me to teach students how to promote self learning through small group activities using the Nexus Tablet. My overall goal is to acquire enough tablets for small group intervention. I hope to do this one tablet at a time.
Our nation is making a shift towards technology based education.
This means all students must be proficient in using today's technology to help them succeed in all other areas of learning. Access to technology is vital for these students to become successful in today's society. Giving my students access to technology that is only a dream for most of them would mean opening a whole new world of possibilities. They will be the next generation of scientists, doctors, engineers, and leaders.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
