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.
"Do we have to leave?" Our students are funny, compassionate and imaginative children that enjoy exploring new skills and developing their literacy skills. They attend an elementary school in the Kensington section of Northern Philadelphia.
The room buzzes throughout the day as they laugh, sing and share with their peers.
They are a thoughtful, loving and hardworking bunch, excited to learn and grow. While they are motivated by their dreams and engaged by the opportunities presented to them, due to economic challenges within the community, school and district, our resources are limited. As their teacher, I struggle to provide sufficient and enriching supplies that will support holistic learning. However, at our school, we are resourceful and do with what we have, but our students deserve and require more.
My Project
I will begin teaching my 2nd grade class in a couple of weeks and had been previously supporting classrooms and students in a different capacity.
In my previous role, I managed fine without these accessories, but now they will be essential as I co-teach a new grade at this point in the year!
Although my new students won't be using these items directly, the second monitor and adaptor will enable me to see my 20+ students as I look at the content they're learning from my work laptop. The wireless mouse will help me more comfortably navigate my laptop and minimizing the strain on my wrists.
My school district is uncertain about our return and what they may look like, so in this period of waiting, it's critical that I have access to items to support their remote learning.
