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 excelling in the remote learner game. They show up every day, they complete assignments and they show enthusiasm for our current and future projects. I enjoy seeing them engaged in our lessons as they actively participate in our rich group discussions. As we continue to embark on our new learning path of virtual learning, my goal for my students is to foster an environment where they feel encouraged to take risks and learn from mistakes without fear. I have a diverse classroom where students come from different economic backgrounds and I would like to provide a virtual classroom where they have equal access to resources that allow them to engage in new learning experiences.

My students are growing risk-takers who are doing their best to master a digital classroom and become fluent 21st Century learners on the road to becoming global collaborators.

My Project

The gift of remote learning has been the creation of digital tools and resources everywhere. The gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers will be used to purchase digital resources for students to use during this time of remote learning as well as support to help teach my lessons virtually. This will help my students become more fluent in working on digital projects and assignments to prepare them for virtual learning, higher education, and global collaboration. The wireless keyboard will help me further create digital assignments and lesson plans through distance learning and beyond. This keyboard will also help me easily maneuver between devices through its wireless connectivity as I teach my lessons.

Regardless of the learning environment, I want to prepare my current and future students with the skills necessary to compete and excel in the digital world.
