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.
Our students are caring and very creative. Despite their communities and our school being a Title I School, students are working hard to progress everyday. In my music class, I have many ELL students and newcomers constantly enrolling and entering the classroom at any given time during the school year, but because music is universal, they are able to understand, follow along, and have fun!
Many of our students are dealing with separation from parents at the boarder, extreme trauma, and a number of adversities that effect their daily routines.
We have over 1,100 students in our elementary school, and the number of enrollment is increasing daily. With larger classroom sizes (*at times combining 60+ students in one Music Classroom) calls for the need of technology to help with learning.
My Project
With the use of a new projector, my music students will benefit by being able to use interactive music related websites (Example, QuaverMusic.com), and other media outlets to enhance their understanding of the content that I teach-Music. I will be able to show students visual content to encourage more group discussions, as well as new interest in Music.
The use of both visual and audio tools are an absolute necessity to engage learning, especially for my ELL (English Language Learners).
Visual aids are easier for them to comprehend while learning a new language. Visual aids help capture students' attention and increases their curiosity in learning the subject matter. Being able to show all my students new experiences with Music by use of technology will greatly enrich their learning experience and make learning more fun.
