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 Digital Media students are natural born creators, explorers, and artists. They are inquisitive, they want to learn, they're curious, they crave new learning experiences, want to search for meaning and truth and share their own stories through media. It is my job to facilitate and give them access to that knowledge and the skills they need to get the answers they seek here in high school and beyond as they enter university or the workforce. We, like many public schools, struggle with technology purchasing and we rely on your generosity to fill in the financial gaps that allow us to get the technology our students crave.

As young creators, they require the necessary equipment that can impact their final creative ideas, into powerful images that they can share with the world.

Since the start of our school year, there is a true sense of teamwork and support within the team. They are sophomores, juniors, and seniors who have intentions of pursuing a creative career after they graduate high school. Your donation will be a great starting point for their lives.

My Project

The online resources from Teachers Pay Teachers are useful additions to my new photography classroom. The units shared on the site have been created by tenured teachers who have mastered their curriculum. Receiving a donation of a Teacher Pay Teacher Gift Card, I will be able to purchase a variety of activities from the Teacher Pay Teacher online store. The books here are all directly related to subjects that we learn in class and the information will be used as new examples for my students. Specifically I want to purchase a set of Photography unit plans from Look Between The Lines, so I can utilize the lessons about photographic journalism and how to document their COVID experiences. The neighborhoods that my students come from have the highest COVID positive rates in the state, I will use these lesson plans to assist my students to create projects based on the changing world around them.

My students will benefit from these resources and will be able to create photojournalism art pieces while learning remotely and as we transition back to in-person learning later this fall.
