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 Students

Our students come to school excited and curious, from all different types of backgrounds and starting points. Students will have an incredible year full of opportunities to engage and learn from technology. Given support and opportunities, they are all capable of getting a strong educational foundation that will benefit them their entire lives. Help be a part if this exciting journey by providing my students with your donations. You can help make a difference in my classroom. Thank you for taking the time to visit our page and get to know us.

My Project

My Project

I strive to create the optimal learning environment for my students.

The headphones will be used with our 1:1 student iPads in class for all subject areas, but specifically for math and literacy instruction. At this age, many of the activities are oral (read to me, listen to my instruction). In order for my student to hear what they are listening to on the devices, they need headphones. I would like each student to have headphones so that we can use them during differentiated instruction time.

Having these headphones will make a huge difference in our class as headphones are not always available at our school. Earphones are not always fitting or comfortable for kindergarten students. These would help my students be happy and comfortable while completing their online assignments. Thank you in advance for your interest in our project
