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
Overhead projectors are so 20th century. An ELMO document camera would bring our math classroom to the 21st century. While an overhead is a wonderful tool, an Elmo document camera can help facilitate a more interactive classroom learning environment for our math class.
My students are extremely hard-working kids from the South Bronx.
They attend our school for an extended day (7:25 am - 5 pm), an extended week (Monday-Saturday), and for an extended school year (school in July). Despite their long days, my students love coming to school and working hard! Their math skills are phenomenal and they are extremely dedicated to getting a great education. Funding is limited, so there is a tight balance with needs and wants, which is where our resourcefulness comes into play.
My Project
An ELMO would be an awesome tool to help enhance math lessons. The Elmo document reader would not only allow me to display documents with problems, but it also allows students to display their work as well. An ELMO would also allow students to actively problem solve as a group and with a teacher using the Elmo. It also saves valuable time by cutting down on the amount of time required for writing out and erasing problems on an overhead projector. With an ELMO, documents and projects can be displayed in vivid colors. The ELMO will provide my students with interactive lessons allowing them to take an active role in their education. Using the Elmo will allow us to view visuals in an instant.
Our school has a projector in my classroom but my students need the ELMO to enhance their experience. Since our school has a projector available, this Elmo will definitely be used (everyday) to help create the best interactive math class possible!
What a difference an ELMO would make in a math class!
Your time and generous donation will help these amazing students become active participants in a quest for solutions to our common problems. Please assist them as they continue their life-long love of learning math.
