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

Our class is full of curious kiddos who are eager to learn and grow! We have students with diverse backgrounds, languages and strengths that all benefit from the use of technology in our classroom.

Having iPads available will enable students to take charge of their education, feed their curiosities and enhance our learning through the use of technology!

The use of iPads will support all children in having access to rigorous and fun filled learning that meets them at their level, and enables them to achieve new things each day!
