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.
As you know the COVID-19 pandemic has been remaking daily life for millions of Americans and their children. As a school teacher, it was heartbreaking to tell my students that we would not be seeing each other for a while.
We are a Title I school that does not have a 1:1 device for everyone, so I have to come up with other ways to reach my students so they will not fall behind.
This digital divide is so pronounced and students are paying the price. I have many parents who have lost their jobs and are wondering how they will get through this with bills piling up, lack of essential items, and lack of food. For those students who have devices, many do not have reliable WIFI in their homes. They end up using their parents’ cellphone to get connected to my zoomed lessons.
Though their outside environment may not be conducive to learning, my students have an insatiable love of learning. I know that if we provide them with the right support, resources, and opportunities, they can experience success.
My Project
My students have been home for over a month and they are adjusting well to remote learning. We have been working daily on all academic subjects but they need some time to express how they feel artistically.
I would like each student to receive a sketch pad as well as paints.
I've attached art videos on Google Classroom but they don't have materials such as paints and drawing pads. They will be able to recreate drawings and even paint how they feel during this stressful and uncertain time.
The earbuds will be used with their devices so they can hear me as I zoom and teach lessons. Many live in cramped quarters with other siblings so earbuds will tune them out and tune me in! The towels will be given so they can clean their brushes and paints.
