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 eager first graders from a high poverty public school. My 1st grade students come to school everyday with a passion of learning and engaging in learning. They come from different backgrounds and have different life stories. By the end of this school year, I want all my students to be on grade level with their reading, using technology.

The headsets will increase desire to learn using a variety of technology through independent use of online, engaging websites.

My students do not have access to technology at home and have limited resources at school. They are growing up and want to feel like they are acquiring more adult skills. It is important to tap into these desires to encourage them to explore new areas and learn new things. They will be able to learn through engaging games such as RAZKids, ABC Mouse, Starfall, Mathletics, and other great programs with the use of the online resources. Students will use the headphones to be able to listen without distractions within the classroom.
