My Students

It feels so long since I have seen both my students and classroom. We have weekly chats and video sessions but it is not the same. But is is the safest option for now. I have made many changes to accommodate to this new online teaching transition. I have installed Wi-Fi in my house, changed a room to resemble a classroom which I feel need a few more things to help my new home classroom come alive with my virtual lesson.

Even though my students face a lot of challenges at times, they still have positive attitudes, eager and ready to learn which is what makes me come ready to teach them with love and kindness.

My Project

I have installed Wi-Fi in my house, changed a room to resemble a classroom which I feel need a few more things to help my new home classroom come alive with my virtual lesson. The Led lights will be use to keep the kids engaged during the lesson. I have found its hard to keep kids focus virtually for long periods of time so I will use the lights to transition to the next subject, short brain breaks and to get their attention when off tasks. The speaker will be used to help hear all my students clearly and the masks are to keep us germ free from each other when we have to report back to work. The tripod stand will allow be to be seen clearly while I teach on my phone without having to hold it in my hand.
