Overhead Projector Needed For Learning in Second Grade

An overhead projector for my class of 25 second grade learners would be a valuable tool in teaching Reading, Writing, and Math.

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.

I am teaching a second grade class of 25 learners. My school has no available overhead projectors to assist in teaching valuable lessons in reading, writing, and math.

Without the use of a overhead projector my students are without an interactive learning tool. Overhead projectors allow for the entire class to view a process that the teacher demonstrates for understanding.

An overhead projector would allow for my lessons to be much more effective as I demonstrate while I teach, as well as, allowing students to demonstrate their understanding and skills to their peers.

An overhead projector will be a helpful technological tool for learning in Reading, Writing and Math for my class of 25 second grade learners. Please help.
