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

Many of my students relay on visual stimuli to comprehend lesson topics. In this new age of computers, a data projector can become an excellent tool enhance learning. Students appreciate the use of technology and this form of technology will entice the students to learn.

The students that I teach come from low income families that can not afford to have the technology necessary to learn.

With this use of this data projector students can embrace this new technology and apply it to real life situations and can share this information with others.

My Project

With the use of this data projector I can enhance student learning and use the Internet to broadcast live photos and videos of the planets and other science topics. In addition I can use the speaker to demonstrate any sounds that can be heard during the lesson.

The students in my Earth Science class can view and understand the differences between rock types and rock formations.

I will be Able to create power point presentations that can be adjust to the students IEP.
