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 students are bilingual and are learning to be independent readers and writers in Spanish and English. They enjoy reading books, working with robotics, and coding. They like helping each other when they work in groups.
In our class, we are building a classroom family, where everyone matters.
We have school guiding principals we are learning in order to become responsible, and respectful citizens. For example, having integrity, everyone matters, and not everyone learns the same way because we are all different.
My Project
iPads will help my students to practice their reading, and math skills. They will use the iPads to read books on raz-kids, practice reading high frequency words and addition and subtraction problems. They will also use them for research in science. We are currently learning about planets.
They will also use IPads to practice 21st Century Skills like coding.
They can play coding games that will teach skills to prepare them for jobs in technology. I have some students that struggle with reading and will benefit from a hearing and repeating high frequency words center with the IPads. By having them in a center, they can use them every time they have completed an assignment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
