My Students

I want my classroom to be a place students WANT to come every day, not HAVE to come every day. This is definitely a challenge with distance learning. Each student is different, each year is different( especially this year!), and this is why I love my job. I love being able to figure out what makes them excited to come to school every day, which makes them learn, and how I can help or possibly inspire them to reach their full potential.

My school is located in South Los Angeles where 100% of the students receive free lunch.

My school is a Performing Arts Magnet, so the students come from a variety of homes all over Los Angeles County from various socio-economic backgrounds. I have some parents that are teachers, some that are construction workers, and some that work more than one job to make ends meet. What they all have in common is a desire to give their child the best education possible.

My Project

I would like to make my distance learning curriculum more engaging. I would like a green screen to give my students a visual background other than my living room. With a green screen, I can transport myself to Hogwarts, The Grand Canyon, or even Mars. Whatever we are working on, we can go instantly. Keeping students engaged during distance learning can be a challenge, but I believe the ability to transport them to a certain place in time will make the students learning experience at home more meaningful and memorable. At the conclusion of distance learning, the green screen can be used for projects in the classroom.
