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

The tablets will give benefits to my students when they have time at the end of the day for educational games to help with IEP goal growth and STAAR Alt knowledge. Tablets are lightweight, portable devices that can be easily carried anywhere. They allow the student to access educational materials and resources on the go. Plus, these have a very sturdy case. My students need collaboration to be able to learn certain TEKS in an engaging, fulfilled way to help maintain knowledge and student achievement.

By giving my students access to tablets, we are not only enhancing their academic success but also we are preparing them for the challenges and opportunities of the digital age.

This is great for possible future career readiness.

I teach at a low-income charter school in Texas where 90% of students qualify for free lunches. Help give my students important technology to help with important achievement and student success. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated.
