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

Hello! My goal is to provide my students with access to engaging tools to meet their needs at his stage of development. We use small groups centers daily and one of our small groups is a Technology center. My students will be able to explore educational apps that support literacy, math and creativity and motor skills. These apps like i-ready, Lexia, and IXL will help each child grow at their own pace while staying motivated and involved.

With this iPad mini I will be able to monitor and guide them by controlling what they see right from my teacher center.

Help me get this project funded to so I can better monitor their activity, guide their learning in real time, and support safe use of educational technology.
