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

In a 2nd grade classroom, I have seen such student growth using I pads, computers, and technology. In our classroom, we have a 2 hour literacy block that would benefit for differentiation with the I pads. I want my students to have the choice to learn in a way that is the most beneficial for the

I have 21 students in my classroom.

My school has more than 700 students and it is an inner city school. My school welcomes its diverse student population and implements a variety of experiences to reach out to our school community. Some of our more noteworthy events include Literacy Volunteers Program, Family Dinners, Family Fun and Learning Nights, Neighborhood Clean-Up, and the Spring Community Art Show which showcases the art work of students, parents, staff and community volunteers. My students come to school eager to learn new things everyday. They work very hard to complete all tasks throughout the day.

My Project

Students will use these I pads in every subject throughout the day. In reading, during stations, each group will read at their just right level on a reading program that targets their needs. During writing, students can assess an On-line dictionary or word bank if needed. In math, there are various websites for students to use for extra reinforcement and for a specific skill. Also, we need the I pads for research. We have a non fiction unit that we need to research biographies of people and animals. Students can use these I pads for their visual, auditory, and kinesthetic needs. Also, in Social Studies students can use it for looking at the city we live in, use maps, and other apps to help with their location. I pads are a great resource in the classroom as we use it for rotating stations throughout the year. Stations are always differentiated during the year and students are put on websites for reinforcing skills that need to be addressed.

This donation will help my classroom in so many ways.

As technology is becoming more and more of a need in schools, these I pads will allow students to learn in a diverse way and helps students focus at their own speed. Students can rotate the I pads each morning for morning work and help students understand responsibility for their I pads. If students have their own level of reading and math, each time they sign on their name & I pad, the I pad will help track progress at their level.
