Celebrating 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 classes are filled with wonderful and diverse students who are very eager to learn. Our school is located in a low-income community, which can make teaching a challenge at times. The shortage of funds makes it difficult for us to get the resources needed.
My students love to learn.
One of our favorite quotes is, “The only limits in life are the ones you make.”– Anonymous.
My Project
Before the school shutdown due to the pandemic, our students from the Robotics Club were working on a few Public Service Announcements. We want to continue with this project since our school is using the hybrid model. I just found out that some camera companies are offering free online classes during this pandemic. One of the courses which will definitely benefit our students including myself is called "Storytelling through Video." This tutorial will teach us various shot types that will make the story we are telling more compelling. We will also learn how camera movements are an easy way to add interest to any video.
The digital camera that I am requesting will be used for free online photography classes.
This digital camera will also be used for my tutorials and will allow students to see their work.The microphone will allow for clear audio and the ability to produce podcasts. I also would love to make my Google Meet more interactive. We refuse to let this pandemic bring us down.
