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 Project

What I love most about my students is their enthusiasm for learning new things. Having a camera in my classroom lets me capture their excitement as they collaborate with their partners; conduct scientific investigations, and present before their peers. In my past experience, when my students were recorded for their effort and hard work, they were more motivated to excel and produce.

I would love to capture those precious aha moments using the camera when my students make connections in their work products and see how engaged they are in their learning.

Throughout the school year, my students create unique work products. By getting this camera, I can catch these great memories and use them to help my students reflect and admire their work. Having a Canon Rebel camera in my classroom would enable me to solidify those moments for my students and their parents and allow them to engage in their learning.
