Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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.

My Students

I have been teaching at this school since October 2016. I teach in a pre-kindergarten to 8th grade school with around 750 students; I see all of them. These students come from various cultural backgrounds. 45% of the school is ELL (English Language Learners.) There are very large sized classes and varied levels of English speaking students.

Since I am in a poverty stricken neighborhood, resources are very limited.

These students have very limited instruments in our music classroom.

Being a young, new teacher, this is very challenging to support myself and my classroom. The reason I am asking for this is because my students deserve a classroom that right now I can not give them. I want to help my students in every way and I hope you can help me, help them.

My Project

Having a movable document camera and a projector in the music classroom creates endless of possibilities.

With the use of a projectors and document cameras, I will be able to reserve my resources like paper and move away from chalk, and whiteboards.

Using a projector and document camera, I will be able to show sheet music, videos and demonstrates of written music theory.

There are many resources available to music teachers to create new and exciting interactive lessons to be used in the classroom.

Purchasing accessories for these materials such as a carry case, a remote and a cart, will prolong the life of the projector and document camera for me to use in my classroom many years.
