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 Project
The use of the Canon EOS R7 camera will be an excellent classroom tool in chasing and capturing things on the go. Our students are active learners and enjoy exploring things on the go in nature and their surroundings. Students will be able to embrace the magic of the lens by photographing animals, vehicles, and movement activities in school. They will photograph STEM activities on the go such as 3D race cars, boats, etc. Students will work to develop their individual portfolios and group class activities will also be documented. Students will be able to capture their step-by-step learning and the teacher will be able to share the learning experience with the parents and school community.
Students will utilize the camera to explore STEM activities, things in nature and transportation vehicles documenting their project-based learning and creating individual student and class portfolios.
They will actively engage in their education by learning how to use the camera, and photographing things of interest that stimulate future projects and engage them in learning. Students at this age need a ton of visuals. They will be able to use the camera to photograph themselves in action and create printed visuals to utilize in the classroom.
Learning happens in a flash. The use of the Canon camera will capture these moments for our students as they live and learn one photo at a time.
