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

Students will benefit from this updated technology that will help me at school and at home by bringing more engaging lessons and excitement for learning to my students. I will be able to download the better NatGeo lessons I have planned and our 5-Regions Project. My outdated technology did not allow my to carry out the project successfully before.

This technology will be used for school or home remote online learning and will be easily adaptable as conditions change and warrant.

I believe I can do much more with these resources than I am able to do now. These updated technology instruments of learning will help me present more lessons to my students as a National Geographic Certified Educator and elementary teacher.

My present technology freezes up and has issues with updates and viruses. Apple products have better applications which are suited for education. This could help change that with an additional Apple TV and other updated items added later. These items would be the beginning steps of an updated technology-driven classroom utilizing my present Mimio board.
