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 are energetic, they are hands-on, and they love to get involved in learning. When we are doing a unit on ecology, they love combining hands-on work like dissecting a real owl pellet with access to online course materials and slides.

Unfortunately in my class, a lot of students consistently struggle with having a charged laptop.

This brings in the question of access to my classroom. It becomes a race, unfortunately, for who gets to learn today, determined by the number of outlets. These extension cords will enable all students in my class equal access to charge, and by 'extension', access to diverse sets of interactive, multimodal resources.
