Learning With The Aid Of A Digital Camera

My students need a digital camera and 4 memory cards that will enable us to photograph our projects, and record us as we complete our school projects.

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.

We are looking to technologically create our school projects and share them with other school districts across the United States. I teach third grade in a low income and socio-economically disadvantaged community where the resources are very limited. I want my students to know and feel that they have had an opportunity to complete their projects and be able to enter into fairs anywhere.

We don't have access to digital cameras and memory cards. My students would like to create their projects via technology. They would like to be able to see the project finished from beginning to end.

If we had a digital camera with memory cards we would have an opportunity to enter our projects all over the United States and never leave California, thanks to Technology.

You will make it possible for my students to show others that we can accomplish great things regardless of where our school is located if we have the necessary resources.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
