My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!
I have many ELL students who would benefit from translation applications while I am demonstrating.
Our school is located in the heart of Downtown Salt Lake City. Our students come from many diverse backgrounds and cultures. We speak over 100 languages in our district! Many of our students are refugees. Our families often struggle to find employment and opportunity.
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!
My Project
By being able to have a tablet in which to hook up to the classroom projector, I will be able to walk around the room while I am demonstrating important photography and art editing skills.
I have many ELL students who would benefit from translation applications while I am demonstrating.
Student learning will be increased by the greater flexibility I will have with interacting with students as they are struggling, providing one on one attention and instruction. I will be able to individually help students as I move around the classroom, focusing on specific skills while teaching editing applications. Students struggling to understand the language will be benefited with my use of a tablet which will allow me access to translation programs and specific examples. By giving me the ability to walk freely around the room while I am demonstrating and projecting on the classroom computer screen, you will help my many students of diverse learning and language, master skills faster and with more clarity.
