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

This past school year, my students and I have begun using technology more frequently in and out of the classroom. My students were given one to one Chromebook access, which has supported their reading, writing, and math skills as they explore new topics through research, listen to and read new books each week, create projects, practice their typing skills, and engage in activities to support their math fluency.

These headphones will help support my students in creating a learning environment within our classroom where they can focus and work at their own pace without distractions.

They will also support my students in their home learning environment, should we need to switch to remote learning at any time.
