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

Students are currently using Google Classroom for remote learning. As a teacher, we are trying to make lessons as interactive as we can, bringing the most we can to life. We are currently using Google Slides to make interactive lessons and a vivid experience. I currently have 26 students where half the population are special education students and the other half is general education. We are located in one of the most affected areas by COVID-19 in New York and the USA.

My Project

These materials will help guide my students because it will let me create lesson plans and Google Slides that are made for daily instruction for my students. The laptop will help me in creating videos and interactive lessons that will ease our way through remote learning.The laptop has many application that will allow me to integrate while doing pre-recorded and live learning sessions.Its memory drive will allow me to keep the kids work as well as my lesson plans and power points save for future use. Apple has amazing applications and extensions that I will be able to use if I obtain the laptop.
