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 Project

We were blessed to receive a Promethean board in. The interactive Promethean board has transformed our classroom into an interactive and engaging learning environment.

The requested MacBook will only enhance our learning experience.

It is important to have a high power laptop that works well with the Promethean Board. This will allow me to share videos and interactive google slides with my students. A new MacBook will connect wirelessly which will allow for the laptop to be used anywhere in the room. This laptop will also benefit my students by allowing them to actively engage in their learning. The laptop can be easily passed around from student to student allowing them each an opportunity to display their individual work on our Promethean board. Today's world if full of technology and my students deserve access to the best technology.
