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

My students are everything to me! I am a special education teacher and these kids are my babies! This year, I am working in a co-taught kindergarten ICT/ENL class setting, and a SETSS teacher for second grade.

I have the best bunch of kids.

They are exited, eager, inquisitive, thoughtful and have curious little minds. They love and enjoy hands-on learning crafts and activities that get them thinking, while also challenging them. Each and every day they show up ready to learn regardless of challenges they may face. They come to school (whether virtual or in-person) happy and eager to start each new day with a clean slate. They truly are the reason I LOVE my job so much.

My Project

By gaining these materials, my students will have the opportunity to clearly see the activity/task that I am modeling for them.

My students thrive on consistency and routine.

The population of students that I educate would greatly benefit from me using a document camera so that they are not looking at a piece of paper that I am holding up to my camera, which is both shaky and blurry. Their sense of 'normality' has been broken. We've all entered a new way of learning and delivering instruction. They need to be able to clearly see me model the task that I am requiring them to do. A document camera would allow me to place all work under the camera so my students have the opportunity to see my work clearly as it is intended - just like they did when they were in the classroom. Having a document camera will help greatly with the delivery of my instruction and allow learning to continue just like it was when they were in-person. Furthermore, table-top anchor charts will allow me to create the necessary visuals for my students. 100% of my students are either English Language Leaners, and/or Students with Disabilities. Therefore, visuals are a must! These tabletop charts will allow me to have use of both of my hands while teaching so that I can switch between document camera and chart paper effortlessly without having the keep picking up the chart paper from the floor to refer back to.

In addition to the document camera and chart paper, a laptop cart would prove to be very helpful for my students as it will allow me to create a space to put my laptop and document camera.

All of these materials will be put to good use and benefit my students.
