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 Project
Having a MacBook Air available in the classroom will allow me to display visuals during my lessons. Instruction would come to life with live internet available to access Google images, definitions, and stories that will enhance comprehension for my students. Students would enjoy the convenience of technology-centered lessons with current data and information. It is not only convenient but effective to have the internet ready to use to enhance lessons in my classroom.
This Mac Book Pro would be used for daily instruction in all subject areas.
With the Mac Book Pro, my students will have access to powerful, free apps. These apps will help reinforce reading and math skills. They will be able to interact with digital science programs. It will also unleash their creativity and ability to produce endless exceptional work. I am excited to see how the power of technology with this Mac Book Pro will transform learning.
I can't wait to see my classroom transform into a technological learning place.
