Our school is in an urban district in one of the most diverse cities in California. There are many students who struggle with science concepts due to language and cultural barrier but are still expected to achieve certain standards. In my 11th year teaching at this school I am constantly changing and adapting my lessons and projects to give the most students access to science content. When this project is funded I will be able work with students to develop their science and language skills using Ableton to produce poems, songs, and other multimedia projects such as movies.
