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 and I have embarked on the distance learning journey! We are actively engaging in the challenging new and unexpected way of online way of learning new things. My parents and students are trying their best, but the language barrier makes it difficult for them to complete their work. My students are trying their best to participate by sending pictures and videos of their completed work on the ClassDojo website. We participated on video meetings to go over new material, and to check in with each other. In addition, I am recording lessons at home for them to view and continue to learn new material. I am amazed by their level of engagement and participation, and families' willingness to try new things.

My Project

My students will benefit from the laptop in that I use it for everything! I use it for course planning, parent/student communication, maintaining a course website, creating, and presenting content in the classroom, grading and record keeping, etc. My students will directly benefit from this laptop through the images, maps, videos, and up-to-the-minute information that having access to technology and internet in the classroom provides. Sadly, my school's budget does not have room to provide computers for teachers--money is allocated to other needs of our students.

This laptop will allow me to continue to provide my students with access to digital resources and content that make learning more engaging and fun.

For example, during our unit on counting groups of ten and more in math, having technology in the classroom allows us to view videos, demonstrate using digital manipulatives from online math resources, and communicate to parents about the important content we are learning in kindergarten!
