This project is fully funded
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 Students
As a first-grade public school teacher in a low income/high need community, I try to expose my first-grade students to all facets of learning in order to help them meet their potential and enjoy the learning experience.
I have a group of ambitious and eager public school students who love to read, write, and solve math problems.
They are learning to apply what they learned in order to comprehend and delve deeply into various fiction stories and non-fiction texts during reading workshop and guided reading. They are also learning how to apply various math and science concepts to solve higher-order problems during math and science workshop.
My Project
I am requesting 2 Amazon Kindle Fire Tablets for kids. The tablets will allow my students to use various educational programs to improve their reading, writing, vocabulary, math, science, social studies, and technology skills. The tablets can be used during various times in the day including literacy centers, guided reading, science and social studies workshops, and math centers.
Due to the advances in technology, there are various programs and apps available on the tablets that can help reinforce the skills that my students are learning in class.
The tablets can also help my students who learn best through visual and auditory aids. By using these tablets, my students will be able to improve their reading, vocabulary, writing, math, science, and social studies skills and become better readers, writers, mathematicians, and scientists.
More than half of students from low‑income households
