Help me give my students lessons-on-the-go! As virtual lessons continue I need to be able to move and take my students places!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vega's classroom raised $621
This project is fully funded
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.
My Students
My students have limited access to the outside world even more so now without our school building. They grow and learn in the classroom. Students have had to adjust to our new normal of seeing their teachers and peers online. Learning virtually is very limited and resources are necessary to keep them engaged. My current situation confines me to a laptop, table, and power cord. It is not as enjoyable as a dynamic learning experience I am use to delivering to my students.
My Project
My students have earned the prestigious titles of virtual learners. They have worked so hard at becoming independent and accountable. I would love to engage them by having a tool to teach and travel with them virtually. An IPad would provide me the ability to have on-the-go lessons and give them a sense of excitement as I take them on outdoor adventures. They would be able to hear, see, and enjoy the outdoors. Learning remotely should be a positive experience and memory that the Ipad would be able to provide.
I need to continue to keep my lessons dynamic and interested in this time of virtual learning.
The iPad will give me the portability that I need to give my students a more interesting experience. I can take them around my house, my backyard, to the park, anywhere portable that does not confine me like my current heavy laptop. The more interesting my lessons are, the more my students will learn. This has been a very difficult adjustment for all of us- I am doing my part in trying to be creative and proactive. The keyboard will allow me to use the iPad in the few moments I will need to be static. I can also use the iPad as an additional camera to use for my Zoom in conjunction to my computer camera for close up camera angles during demonstrations.
More than half of students from low‑income households
