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

My students continue to thrive, collaborating with each other and trying to learn from one another. My students some to school each day with the understanding that I matter, which helps support their motivation to learn.

Many of my students have never been away from home, or traveled great distances by car or plane.

Giving my students a Meta Quest 2 in the classroom will help our geography studies in many ways such as being able to travel to vast destinations without leaving the classroom. They will get to see hands on the Great Pyramids and tour our Government buildings in Washington D, C,

With Your support of this project will help bring the pages to life as students will be able to discover the world from inside a textbook-to the Virtual reality of the meta Quest 2.
