Back to School STRONG

Help me give my students a great distance learning experience. With all the distractions at home, it is not easy to keep scholars engaged. I am positive that with better technology, it will be easier for all of us.

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

I have a great group of students. Nearly all of my students come from low-income households. They all are great and well-behaved students, but it is very challenging for them to be successful because they don't have all the resources they need at home. I truly believe that it should not be an excuse not to fulfill their dreams.

Due to COVID-19, I am doing everything needed in my classroom to be equipped and ready to begin a challenging new school year.

I am searching for all technology and tools needed for my scholars to be successful. I will do everything possible with the circumstances and limitations so that we will have the best experience.

My students know how to take care of their own learning. I have 33 amazing lives to take care of, and they just make my life more fun and valuable. I just love them so much,and I am looking forward to seeing them become great leaders and better human beings. They are the best!

My Project

Covid19 has change our lives in ways we previously never imagined. Virtual class is the new norm. We all have to adapt to this new form whether we like it or not. We will be having virtual learning five days a week for the next semester of this upcoming school year. With my old and super slow laptop, we struggle a lot during class.

Technology helps make teaching and learning more meaningful and fun.

This is the perfect time to update our equipment and to have better technology so we can provide a better instruction. At the same time, using the XP-Pen stylus and graphics tablet I can effectively present content by writing and annotating on presentations and, simultaneously, respond to students' queries.
