Help me give my students meaningful and engaging lessons during distance learning. The document reader will be extremely helpful during math lessons. We also need composition books to support their writing in English and Spanish.

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 school is located on the city of South Gate, California. It is a school that serves students in a low-income community that is predominantly Latinx. As a teacher I seek ways to make my students’ learning engaging and meaningful. I like to create a space in which students feel comfortable to learn and take risks. I look for ways in which to create a classroom that celebrates, respects, and learns about cultural diversity. Our classroom is a place in which students are given the equity they need in order to ensure their learning.
This class is a very special group of students because they are the class who has been piloting the Spanish Dual Language program at our school.
This group of students started the program with me as their teacher in Kindergarten during the 2018-2019 school year and now we will be working together again during the 2020-2021 school year. However, we will be face new challenges together as we navigate distance learning together.
My Project
The document reader will be extremely helpful when teaching math lessons. Since we had to transition to distance learning it has been difficult to teach math because students have difficulty seeing the chart paper I use behind. I have attempted to carry lessons only on the computer but the lesson moves at a slow pace and the students lose interest.
The document reader will allow the students to follow the lesson along as if we were in the classroom.
They will be able to see live examples of problems and use of manipulatives.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
