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
“If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow.” – John
My amazing young students are bright, enthusiastic and curious about the world.
98% of the student population at our school is made up of children coming from very low socio-economic households. My students often lack exposure to the communities and world around them. Many of our students’ families do not speak English in their homes and therefore even exposure to everyday language is limited. Furthermore it is very rare that they have a computer in their household. School budgets are suffering right now and we simply do not have the funding to help get our kids the technological resources that would help to increase their exposure to the world and motivate their interest in learning new things.
My Project
For many of my students seeing is believing. Using a projector in the classroom will allow me to enhance my students learning experience through the use of visual media. The Internet and educational films allow students to see for themselves examples of the arts, world topics, scientific phenomena and other limitless educational topics, thereby enhancing their educational exposure. I would like my students to have the opportunity to see the world through the use of visual media.
If funded, this projector will be used not only for the 21 amazing students I am currently teaching but will also be used to enhanced future classes and their educational experiences for years to come.
Because my students need all of the visual aids and exposure they can get in order to succeed at the rigorous curriculum that they must master as they move forward in their educational careers, we need a projector. Oh, and did I mention that technology just makes learning so much fun?
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
