My Students

My students are very enthusiastic and energetic. They are studying 10th grade Spanish Dual Immersion Language. And honestly, I am a very proud teacher because if you have ever tried to learn a language you know how difficult it is to learn a new language. They are rigorous, authentic and have ownership of their learning. They are passionate about the target language, and every single day make an extra effort to not speak English in class. Their attitude is beyond expectations, and they are facing new challenges every single day.

My Project

I teach hispanic literature and film, at a high school, in a bridge progam in colaboration with the University of Utah. An important part of the curriculum is to create a final project where students need to make their own movie, by applying what they have learned during the year. I'd like to be sure that students have enough and proper resources for accomplishing the task. This camera will fit great on that challenge! I really think the students will enjoy making their project with such a great device. Thanks you very much.
