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 ASD students tend to feel overwhelmed in loud spaces or get distracted by background noise. This affects them throughout their day, and they cannot function in the learning environment. These children overreact to auditory information, which contributes to difficulties with self-regulation.

With these headphones, my students will be able to participate in potentially loud environments without being overstimulated by the sounds around them.

This makes it possible to concentrate on other tasks, relax, play games with others, and do more-ordinarily difficult or impossible activities. My students will be "ready to learn" with these headphones!
