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.
"Do we have to leave?" Our students are funny, compassionate and imaginative children that enjoy exploring new skills and developing their literacy skills. They attend an elementary school in the Kensington section of Northern Philadelphia.
The room buzzes throughout the day as they laugh, sing and share with their peers.
They are a thoughtful, loving and hardworking bunch, excited to learn and grow. While they are motivated by their dreams and engaged by the opportunities presented to them, due to economic challenges within the community, school and district, our resources are limited. As their teacher, I struggle to provide sufficient and enriching supplies that will support holistic learning. However, at our school, we are resourceful and do with what we have, but our students deserve and require more.
My Project
Due to overcrowded virtual classrooms, I will begin teaching a newly formed second grade class in a couple of weeks! Naturally, the available document cameras at my school were borrowed by classroom teachers in the early fall and as a result, I'm in need of a document camera.
This document camera is compatible with my school-issued laptop and will enable my students to clearly see what I'm presenting.
They will be able to see the texts I'm reading, the manipulatives I'm using, and the words that I'm writing from afar. This camera will benefit my students whether we are remote, in-person, or a combination of both.
