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

This project was created for a wireless vacuum to help keep our classroom clean. We are often short staffed custodians right now. This impact the amount of work our custodians can do. Our classroom floors are often not vacuumed and my students have to make sure they pick up all the trash off the floors.

A wireless vacuum will save myself and the students time.

Students will have more time to work, rather than clean up the floors at the end of the day. I will have more time to plan lessons and prep lessons, rather than spending hours each week picking up the small pieces of trash off the floor. The iRobot vacuum will be an amazing addition to our classroom because SHE will be in charge of cleaning the floors, NOT the students!

One of the essential benefits you get from having a clean classroom is that students will find it easier to focus on tasks and classes when everything is neat, organized, and clean when they walk into a room. Students can get easily distracted in a chaotic and dirty environment and find it tricky to focus on tasks. By the time I come back from dismissal, the roomba will clean the room and my room will be cleaned daily.
