My Students

The school is a performing arts school in the heart of Manhattan! I teach Physical Setting/Chemistry course at an urban, inner-city performing arts high school. Every day, I strive to teach not only the required curriculum but the real-world connections and data needed to fully explain these science subjects to artistically inclined students. My goal is not just to have my students excel in the classroom but to develop into knowledgeable citizens ready to make an influential impact on the world.

Textbooks in chemistry classes are grossly outdated.

Students are artistically and musically talented, with wonderful and unique personalities. We contain a diverse population at our school, made up of all types of ethnicities, cultures, and learners. In order for students to completely understand complex, cutting edge information involving these topics, they need access to real-time data and research via the world wide web, etc.

My Project

My students and I are dependent on technology during distance learning. We would love a better, faster, and multifunctioning laptop that can run multiple applications, tabs, and software at the same time. We will be using an Apple computer for our physics class to go over the PhET simulations.

The laptop will be used to show simulations, draw molecules, write equations, or present slides during our lessons.

With this kind of technology, I will be able to provide opportunities, multiple entry points, and activities that can be completed by students of all different skill levels and learning styles. In addition, this laptop device will be utilized as an interactive tool (smart-board feature) in all classrooms. Students tend to enjoy the active learning style and perform extremely well on assessments given to them. We also need toy cars for physics labs and some tools along with it to repair and maintain the equipment that we have had for many years.
