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 Students

My third grade students love technology and hands-on lessons! They would be overjoyed with the opportunity to include tablets in our everyday learning routines!

We are a Title 1 school, which means a large number of students come from low income households and many students do not have access to technology at home.

My students have a lot of state testing requirements, so I do all that I can to keep an optimistic, enthusiastic and cheerful classroom pace and environment!

My Project

Having tablets in my classroom will make a huge difference in my student's learning! Third graders are curious and eager learners and having a tablet in hand will inspire them to practice and research! Not only will my students be absolutely thrilled that we have tablets in our classroom, they will be LEARNING while they use them! With the help of these tablets, I can continue to provide my students with FUN classroom lessons, projects and experiments! Keeping my students EXCITED about school is a large part of my awesome job and tablets will definitely assist me in keeping the spirit alive in the classroom!
