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

I strive to provide my students with a quality education, but as a new teacher, I recognize that I still have a lot of room for improvement. My goal is to grow as an educator by seeking out professional development, even when school is not in session. That is why I am seeking your help to obtain an ipad, pen, keyboard, and headphones. I will use these tools to access online courses, webinars, educational resources, and educational materials.

The items I am requesting will provide me with the tools I need to grow as an educator, as they enable focused listening, engagement without distractions, flexible learning.

When teachers engage in professional development, students benefit through improved teaching methods, and enhanced classroom engagement, leading to better learning outcomes nd a more enriching educational experience.
