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

I teach 27 enthusiastic second-graders in a PALS class at a Title I school. My students are inquisitive and creative. They love to engage in technology, math, art, and music.

My students are great readers.

They enjoy exploring various genres, engaging in literature circles, and taking on projects that are connected to their reading.

My Project

I would deeply appreciate having a reliable teacher laptop at work to engage my students in daily learning. I need a laptop to participate in Zoom meetings and to further my own professional development, but also to design 21st-century learning experiences for my PALS students.

Having a classroom laptop will help me to model how to use various apps, project slide decks, and stories with targeted learning content, teach Google tools, and display engaging social-emotional mini-lessons.

My students come to school enthusiastic to learn through many different modalities. I want to be prepared to model responsible ways for students to use their own Chromebook device as a tool to accelerate their curiosity and to advance their learning.
