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

"Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected'" -- Steve Jobs. My students are making their classroom an environment where excellence is expected.

My third grade students are a very inquisitive bunch.

They love and enjoy learning. These twenty four students are smart and try very hard to get the most out of every day they are in school. Our school district is experiencing huge budget cuts but my class tries to seize each day with their love of learning.

My Project

In today's busy environment it takes many things to make learning interesting. Students all learn a little differently so an iPad will really benefit all my students. There are many "apps" that teach math, spelling, phonics and dictionary skills. It will allow my students to learn at their own pace and have fun while they are at it. We will also be able to access the Internet and take our AR (Accelerated Reader) test too!

Your generous donation to my iPad project will make a huge difference in the lives of my students by providing them with technology to help them conquer the world of tomorrow today.

This iPad will make them smile as they use it. They will think they are the coolest kids in the whole school because they have an i Pad and they will be learning at the same time! Now that's the bomb!
