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

Pilot FriXion erasable pens will give students the flexibility to write neatly, erase mistakes without hassle, and use color coding to organize their work more effectively. This is especially beneficial for IEP students who need structured, legible notes to support their learning accommodations. Having the ability to erase and rewrite without crossing things out will also reduce stress and encourage students to engage more actively in note-taking.

Effective note-taking is a crucial skill for student success, yet many struggle with messy or disorganized notes that make studying difficult.

Traditional pens don’t allow for corrections without creating clutter, and pencils often fade or smudge. For students with learning disabilities, ADHD, or fine motor challenges, these issues can be even more frustrating.

This project will improve students’ ability to take clear, organized, and effective notes, leading to better comprehension and study habits. It will also support students who need accommodations for neat, structured work, creating a more inclusive learning environment.
