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.
Our school is a small Title I high school located in the Flatbush area of Brooklyn. We are located in "Asthma Alley," and sandwiched between two major urban bridges - the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges.
All of my students are recent arrivals to the United States and English Language Learners (ELLs).
They come from every part of the globe seeking a new life of opportunity and freedom here in the United States. They come with the hope that education will allow them to meet their full potential. Many are on public assistance; many others are barely surviving. Yet, my students are expected to meet the same educational standards as more affluent students of New York.
My Project
During the time of COVID, I've needed to rethink how to best serve my students. We usually do multiple microscope labs throughout the year. This will be especially challenging due to the distance learning format.
With a digital microscope camera, I can conduct labs in microscopy and share the amazing unseen world via the ZOOM platform.
Please help me continue to offer the best educational experience I can while maintaining the safest possible learning environment we can. Your kindness and support will have a long lasting impact on our students.
