My students need a laptop charging and storage cart along with laptop cleaning wipes and headphones in order to complete our 21st Century learning classroom.

Celebrating 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 teach at a low socio-economic school where most of my students predominantly speak Spanish. My students are at varying levels of academic ability. Parents do their best to help at home but most of them do not speak the language.
They are striving their hardest to learn as much as they can considering the obstacles they face and most importantly they come to school eager to learn.
Our school is a Title I school with a majority of our students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
My Project
My fabulous first graders have had a rocky start to their school year after hurricane Irma hit our city and then hurricane Maria devastated homes of families in Puerto Rico and thus many were forced to be displaced in our community. I am making it my mission to have this year be a memorable and effective learning experience for all. My goal for this project is to obtain a laptop charging and storage cart for our laptops that were funded through DonorsChoose this past December as well as obtain wipes to keep them clean. I am also requesting the last few headphones needed to complete our class set to go along with our laptops.
After losing everything, I am making it my mission to have this year be a memorable and effective learning experience for all.
Our laptops are allowing us to introduce the new program that is used by our district to assess our students. They will gain the experience of working through concepts in Math and Reading at their own pace and they will have developed the skills to take the exam at the end of the year without worrying about not knowing how to use a computer. The charging and storage cart is essential to helping reach this goal because we do not have a place to store our laptops nor a place to charge them. Please help us get these necessary items so that we can be ready for the 21st Century.
