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

My students are wonderful boys and girls. They are very motivated to learn and they are waiting for the moment to return to the classrooms to see their classmates and teachers. Unfortunately due to the pandemic we will be forced to stay home for the first 6 weeks of school. Anyway, the mood of my students is quite energetic, they are ready to learn.

"As a teacher, I push my students to success." Since I chose this profession, my students have inspired me to push themselves to achieve their goals.

They have all the elements to achieve it, and I have the guide to build that success in them.

My Project

This next school year will be unique and different for the reasons that we all know, we (teachers) are doing our best to prepare the best virtual lessons for our students. For this reason, the document camera will be very helpful to project the readings in which my students will learn the different strategies to prepare for the state exam.

Our children have different levels of learning and focus, which is necessary to have good management and ensure that everyone is focused.

I know that with this document camera I will make them aware of the lesson and will learn in a better way by having the lesson of the day in front of their computer screen.
