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 have a unique blend of amazing transitional kindergarten students. They are bright, enthusiastic learners and rise to any challenge I present to them. I have a diverse group, even though we are a small group. 1/3 of my class is comprised of English Language Learners and I have about 1/4 of my class with special needs. With so many different learners in my classroom, I am constantly finding new ways to engage them.

All of my students have a passion for learning that I'm happy to encourage!

My Project

My students are very diverse and have many different needs educationally and emotionally. While most of our school has access to Chromebooks and iPads, ours is one of the few grade levels that doesn't yet.

The goal of adding four Dell Chromebooks for our classroom is to promote the integration of technology into their learning.

By using digital tools like Google Classroom and Screencastify, the students can demonstrate their knowledge of a variety of concepts. Screencasting is a very powerful tool in developing oral vocabulary, which is a vital goal in a TK classroom, and will help my English Learners immensely.

These laptops will make a definite impact on my students.
