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 students need earphones that are reliable so that they can use all of the digital resources that our district provides. We currently have earphones that are falling apart, and they don't always work! This makes it very frustrating for students when they are trying to listen to stories or questions that are being read aloud to them.

Having earphone cases will make it a lot easier for students to keep their materials organized.

It is difficult to keep the cords out of the way on their desks, but having cases will simplify the process! Having extra clipboards will also help students as they choose different seats to work on assignments.
