My Students
I consider my classroom a home away from home for my students. It is an environment where they feel comfortable to ask for help and make mistakes. We recite daily a pledge that reminds them of how great they are.
Despite them living in an impoverished area, they fight against the odds daily and come to school ready to learn.
I teach a group of energetic 2nd graders who are eager to learn new things daily. Therefore they deserve to have the very best in education.
My Project
This laptop will help me to be a 21st century teacher especially while working at home. I find that it is very challenging to complete my heavy workload while at school. Therefore, I tend to bring quite a bit of work home in order to keep up. Having this powerful tool will enhance my teaching as well as enhance my student's learning.
As a result of COVID-19, remote learning has become not only necessary but a requirement for my students to earn the education that they deserve.
Communicating with students has become a great challenge. Remote learning requires an reliable device. With this HP laptop I will be able to incorporate content-based lessons to support technology and provide visual media to my students. I will be able to utilize google classroom to teach lessons. Also, I will be able to share videos that foster learning.
In addition to remote learning, I will also have an opportunity to gain new teaching strategies through online professional development. By having access to these online courses I will be able keep up with 21st century learning.
