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

Since the pandemic, I am facing challenging circumstances by having to teach students through distance learning. Many of them do not have reliable internet access and share a computer with several family members. I want my students to have the best access to the content I teach, Health and Biology.

My school is located in a low socio-economic neighborhood, 98% Latinos, 12% who are English language learners, and 13% who have a learning disability.

87% of our students are from low-income families and are eligible for free and reduced meals through Title 1 funding.

Many of my students do not have access to the best resources; however, they are enthusiastic and curious learners. Even through distance learning, they continue to be active participants, which motivates me to continue to enhance and create interactive activities and projects

My Project

Lesson designing during the pandemic has led me to use online platforms requiring updated software which my outdated laptop can no longer support. For Health and Biology, I like to integrate simulators and many of the programs are not compatible and cannot be downloaded.

The Surface Pro would give me the ability to use online interactive applications, and the stylus pen would allow me the accessibility to write in real-time and erase on the screen during online live instruction.

In addition, the stylus pen would support me in giving my students immediate feedback.
