Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 Project

My students have an abundance of wealth in charisma, eagerness to learn English, motivation, and an overflowing knowledge of their culture.

These precious scholars love practicing their listening and speaking skills in English daily!

Chair socks for noise reduction, will help minimize noise distractions and improve the students' ability to tune in to each other's responses and improve English conversation overall during partner work or group discussions. Additionally, during assessments students will be able to get up from their seats without interrupting anyone's focus. Lastly, chair socks will prevent injury during the hot months when students are wearing open toe shoes.
