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

Through the use of an iPad Air, my students will be able to design and create a variety of projects in the classroom. With this tool, they will design and create videos, presentations, and they will be able to monitor their own progress/scores on various apps/websites they work on. They will have all the info at their fingertips. I would like for students to have the tools needed to let their imagination and creativity run wild and fulfill their ideas.

I want to expose my students to an iPad because the majority of them do not have a computer or laptop at home to use.

It's extremely important for students to be exposed and have access to such a tool because the world runs on technology. We need to prepare them for the future and have them acquire skills for the workforce. I'm looking forward to motivating and inspiring my students to learn math and reading skills. My students will be able to construct creative content and fulfill their ideas.
