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

I teach an incredible group of 24 kindergarteners in a regular education classroom. My students are curious, enthusiastic, and full of potential. They thrive when provided with engaging tools that foster their independence and creativity. Technology plays a vital role in our classroom, helping my students learn through interactive activities tailored to their unique needs. To maximize these opportunities, we need high-quality headphones and a reliable charging solution to keep our devices ready for learning.”

“In our classroom, we use tablets and laptops daily for individualized learning activities, literacy games, and listening centers.

Without reliable headphones, sound from multiple devices overlaps, leading to distractions and interruptions during lessons. Additionally, having a central charging solution will ensure our devices are always powered up and ready to support my students’ learning.

High-quality headphones and an extension cord will create a smoother, more efficient learning environment where students can fully immerse themselves in their tasks. This will help foster early literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving skills—essential building blocks for their educational journey.

My kindergarteners are an amazing group of young learners who bring energy, creativity, and joy to our classroom every day. Each child has unique talents and learning styles that make our classroom a vibrant and diverse community. They are eager to explore, ask questions, and grow. With the right tools, I know they can accomplish anything they set their minds to.
