Headphones & Zip !

Help me give my students headphones and ziploc bags to help keep them clean and safe. We need index cards for word work and the rings to keep them intact. We are also asking for plastic sleeves.

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

These materials would make a difference in my students' learning because many of the students are easily distracted by the classroom noise and or get distracted by listening to their peer's computer. Each child has been assigned individualized instruction and given leveled tasks in which they need to complete independently. The zip loc bags will help keep the headphones organized, clean and safe. The index cards will be used for word study and the rings will help keep the flashcards organized. The sheet protectors can be used to help keep myself organized and in addition allow me to use them for "write & swipe" centers.

My students need headphones to keep their head in the game.

All scholars that I serve are working below grade level, so I am looking for ways to keep them learning, engaged, motivated and excited in a fun way by incorporating interactive videos and assignments online.
