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
My students are just entering middle school. They come to me with a wide range of experiences in school and with education. Some come with varying levels of English. Some have already faced challenges many adults never have to face. Yet, they come to school with smiles on their faces and hope in their hearts.
My students are thirsty for the best education.
They are tired of the old ways of school and are ready for the new. Just the mention of technology gets their attention. The involvement in a hands-on task lights their fire to learn and to discover more. They are curious about science and the earth.
Sometimes they come with misinformation or only partial understanding. I love to see their minds click as they piece together the facts. The students are eager to help each other reach these new levels of understanding. They love to talk to their peers and engage in learning as a group.
My Project
As we all know this year is starting out differently then any other year in history. This means we are all making quick adjustments to ensure the best quality learning for all students. I will be instructing my students via online instruction for the foreseeable future. This means I will be at my desk more then ever. As a teacher who is usually moving around the room interacting with students, sitting at a computer all day proves to be challenging. Having a Staples Sit and Stand desk will ensure I am able to keep my energy up all day in order to engage my students.
Distance Learning means I need to adjust my instruction to not only fit the needs of the situation but the needs of my students as well.
I need a mobile whiteboard in order to be able to continue online instruction at the rigger I would in the classroom. I need a way to show samples and help students through live lessons.
I need to adjust the way I teach and my surroundings in order to create an environment conducive to this new Distance Learning model. Having a sit and stand desk and a mobile whiteboard will help create this teaching and learning environment.
More than half of students from low‑income households
