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

Headphones can help create a focused and immersive environment by blocking out external distractions. This will allow my students to concentrate better on their tasks and absorb information more effectively. Headphones will help in personalized learning, as students can listen to audio materials at their own pace and revisit them as needed. This promotes individualized understanding and retention of the subject matter. By incorporating headphones into my classroom, I can enhance engagement, comprehension, and overall learning outcomes. My students are special because they are hardworking and in need of a lot of help. I believe in their potential and will do whatever it takes to help them become better and successful.
