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

Christmas is fast approaching. This school year is halfway done and we've accomplished a lot! We've been writing and learning how to take notes. Note-taking is an important skill that can be a lot more fun with colored pens.

Colored pens are one great addition for note-taking, but what about computer lab time?

While using their laptops they have to contend with noise coming from all the computers in the classroom. This is where the headphones will come in handy! They will be able to listen and work quietly.
