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

We do not have any sort of build in sound system in our classroom. Our speaker is over four years old and the cord has to be plugged in just right for it to work properly, so it is often cutting in and out. I would love to provide a new, louder, speaker to practice all of our dances with to mimic the stage music better. The students will occasionally film their dances on our classroom iPad. The apple to HDMI cord will help us to play their dances on the big screen seamlessly. We are getting to where we have had so many performances and it's hard to keep track of our videos. I would like an external hard drive to keep all of our performances videos organized and in one place. We also put our performances on DVDs to watch. I would love a case to help keep the physical videos organized as well.
