Students at my school are a caring, creative, and unique bunch. They are full of personality and are not afraid to let their passions shine, no matter how obscure. Indeed, one of our more popular clubs is String Band. The sounds of traditional folk music can be heard throughout the halls, and members of the school's folk dancing club can be seen busting a move to the tunes.
Our school places heavy emphasis on 5 core values or the 5 Rs: responsibility, respect, reach, relationship, and resilience.
Our students strive each and every day to embody those values and often exceed expectations. The resiliency they have all shown lately in light of the challenges presented to them throughout the pandemic has been especially inspiring to see.
My Project
This project would assist me in better reaching my students with a new laptop that has a functioning, built-in, quality webcam and does not crash in the middle of a Zoom session. I would use this laptop daily in my classroom to create assignments, cast items to my board, and utilize Google Classroom. I could assist students who are at home by Zooming with them or by creating videos or more engaging assignments that meet their needs.
This past school year proved that having good, reliable technology is key to assisting students and crucial for being able to design highly engaging lessons.
