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

My students have many challenges they need to overcome. The majority come from low-income families, they are willing to learn and adapt to their learning environment. Although many do not have technology at home, they love to learn and to be introduced to new technology. They take on projects with a smile on their face. We use different learning strategies and learn about new programs, although many do not have the materials to work with, I ensure that their needs are met. They are a great group of students and I am glad to teach them.

My Project

In Math, we need to be able to explain and show our thinking. I will be able to explain problems live to my students through the use of a touch screen and not have to rely on showing videos. We can make conjectures in geometry and make drawing and draw conclusions. As students study graphs we can write on them to clarify questions and understandings.

With a new computer, I can help clarify questions and misconceptions.

Math is a touch subject for students and exposing them to different programs on laptops can enhance their learning.
