Reason

Mrs. Cardenas uses her Mac computer to enhance student engagement and learning. At the beginning of the year she used I Photo to take a picture of every child. Then they used the speech bubble to write their name, grade, teacher, and team in Spanish. Those are displayed on the wall of the classroom. She videoed teachers using facial expressions and Spanish phrases to describe feelings and emotions. She used this as a teaching tool to present this info to the students. Now students are videoing themselves sharing their Spanish and personal information. She shows the \”movies\” to the class when students have completed the assignment to model correct pronunciation and display student learning. The whole student body benefits.

And

As a teacher of kindergarten through 5th grade Spanish students Mrs. Cardenas continually utilizes our new iMac computers to enhance their learning experiences . For some groups, she films examples and creates dvd’s to help students practice their skills. She also allows students to take pictures of themselves and use them to learn Spanish vocabulary…5th grade classes create and film commercials in Spanish that are collected on a dvd to distribute to all 5th grade students, also. Mrs. Cardenas truly deserves this award because she uses technology in all areas of instruction in exciting, engaging, and innovative ways.
