"To use different forms of art and visual aids to reveal humanity. Making human connections is a important aspect in learning global history. Students must be able to identify with what they are learning. Looking at artifacts and visual primary source would give my students an understanding to abstract ideas.
I teach ninth and tenth grade global history. Visual learning is a key component in history class. It would keep my students engaged and make learning history fun. The LCD projector will encourage and enhance the learning experience for my students. It will enable them to understand ideas that existed thousands of years ago.
As a resource the LCD projector would be a treasured tool to inspire my students to learn and think about Human connections.It would also help them understand important events in World history.
Revealing our humanity through art and visual learning is a important theme in my classroom. My Students would be able to experience history by looking at maps, documentaries, art, music.
My students need a LCD projector to learn about history by having a visual guide to help them understand historical events.
See Ms. H.'s class participating in this project!

Dear Jennifer, Donna, Peter, Pauline, Lucia, Susan, Dr. Randy, Emre, Joylynn, ontd_ai, Jessica, Melissa R., Amber, Martha, Steve, Eva, Kimberly, Renu, Deidre, DonorsChoose.org Birthday Team, rezan aka asle, Chris and Anonymous Donors,
I want to take this time to thank all the donors for their gracious donations. The LCD projector has enhanced and made my lessons extra special. All of my students are thankful for your kind gift. I received the LCD projector a couple of weeks ago and it was simple to install and hook to my lap top. It is also made available to my department for use. The LCD projector gives my students a visual aid when they are learning about Egypt or the French Revolution. My students are able to put a face to history. Thank you for your awesome gift!
Thank you!
With gratitude, Ms. H.
