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

Every school year, we always have students who have just arrived in the country and who cannot speak English yet. As a teacher, I too would have the same challenge to deal with the translation problem in real time as well.

We just can't let this language translation problem hinder our students' learning and engagement in the classroom-simply because of the language barrier- whatever language barrier that might be.

Hopefully, with this translation gadget at hand, our class will have a way of overcoming communication and language barrier challenges!
