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

Our society is at a technological crossroads where increasing demands are made for students to enter the workforce with an understanding of technology, yet our schools lack the most basic technology. My students need daily interaction with relevant classroom technology to be prepared for the future

My students live by the motto "Work Hard.

Be Nice." Every day they maintain focus and determination to learn as much as they can within the school day. They ask the challenging questions of each other and myself. When they walk through the classroom door every morning, they are challenged to do whatever it takes to succeed today, tomorrow, and into the future. I teach language arts and social studies in a K-5 public school in Florida. Many of my students qualify for free and reduced lunch. Many of my students lack exposure to the outside world. I attempt to bridge this gap through the exploration of a variety of literature daily. We learn about the lives of many people and historic events through literature. We also challenge our thinking on many topics by reading various points of view on various topics. My students need a broad horizon of knowledge to be successful on state assessments, as well as in their futures.

My Project

My students go home every evening and entertain themselves with their televisions, DVD players, X-boxes, computers, and various other pieces of technology; yet when they are in the classroom, their technological exposure is very limited. While I do all that I can to keep lessons engaging and relevant, it is apparent that students are so much more engaged and attentive to experiences where technology plays a major roll. Many studies have been conducted on the use of interactive whiteboards in the classrooms. Results show higher performance among students in the interactive whiteboard group, with students in the fourth and fifth grades exhibiting the greatest advantage for interactive whiteboard instruction. My students will be more engaged in lessons where the Promethean Board is used, making learning more meaningful and engaging. They will interact with the lessons, preparing for the future where technological experience is not just preferred, but expected.

My students are already looking towards their futures, thinking about what they want to do with their lives and what skills and knowledge they will need to accomplish this.

Technological skills and knowledge is a necessary component for all of my students' futures. Having a Promethean Interactive Whiteboard will have a positive impact on each and every student in the classroom.
