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 classroom is a window into the world. As a digital video teacher in a grade recovery, Title 1 school, I am constantly looking for real world connections for my students and their video projects. Most of my students are older than their peers at a traditional school, have been retained at least once and struggle to pass their standardized tests. They have been sent to my school for smaller class sizes, more individualized instruction, and the opportunity to excel and get back on track for graduation.

I have found that when the students have a reason for producing a project and a platform to share their work, they produce a high quality project.

To get my students excited about video production, I incorporate a variety of video topics and contests into my curriculum. The students can relate to the real world connections and the chance for fame and fortune excites all of us!

My students work as production teams through all phases of video production from pre-production to post-production. I love seeing the joy on their faces when they import a video of themselves and their friends and begin to edit. The interest level goes through the roof!

My Project

To prepare students for their future, they need to work together as a team and solve problems. This project will allow students to stretch their minds as they solve puzzles to find a code and break out of the challenge.

When the students enter the classroom, their bell work is a visual, thought provoking challenge that requires the students to interpret visual images and clues to find a solution and unlock the challenge.

I have been using a two week trial version of BreakoutEDU with my students and the transformation has been amazing! The students come in excited and form teams to begin solving the daily puzzle. They work together and talk through their thought process.

Watching the students explain their rationale and then test their theory has been exciting. Using the SMARTBoard, the students are able to interact with the board and test their solution in real time. When they successfully solve a challenge, they are rewarded with confetti and a celebration! These daily puzzles are expanding their inquiry learning skills, reinforcing team building skills, and increasing excitement for learning that transfers from their bell work to their classroom assignments.

Purchasing a BreakoutEDU kit will allow us to continue using the digital challenges and create our own BreakoutEDU challenges. Please help us continue to expand our minds and grow as a collaborative team!
