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 come from a variety of backgrounds and socioeconomic groups including low income. I teach students from different countries and nationalities, as one of three English as a Second Language (ESL) teachers on my campus. Each and everyone of the students have different learning styles (standard, special education, and AP) I strive to meet. They are smart, fun, hardworking and I want them to all be successful. By using different avenues of learning, and incorporating different strategies into learning; I can ensure the students will maximize their learning.
My Project
A document camera is a fantastic technological tool to allow students the ability to view the teacher modeling practices they need to see to fully grasp. From annotating texts then students coming up to use the document camera to show their understanding to modeling then students practicing revising and editing strategies, the possibilities are endless.
A document camera allows for quality student interaction with the work, especially useful for students with many different learning styles, creating a long-lasting impression and interaction with the assignments.
The simple live action use of a document camera allows for color coding and highlighting, whereas before I was required to take a picture of the text, upload the image, freeze it onto the screen, then students could interact with the text. Students enjoy seeing their work projected and interacted with by all students in the classroom. There are great additional features, such as capturing screenshots, allowing us to revisit the work any future day.
