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

Have you ever tried to focus on your work on a computer while there was extra noise all around you from other computers? This is what my students go through on a daily basis.

My classroom houses 21 amazing, sweet, and talented students.

We are located in a high poverty area in NC and over 80% of the school has English as a Second Language (ESL). Over 90% of my school receives free or reduced lunch. Though we face many obstacles, we are fighters and we work our hardest to overcome them.

My Project

The Listening Center and class set of headphones will greatly impact my students and their academics. The majority do not have money to purchase their own headphones, which causes it to be difficult to concentrate when multiple people are working on a site with sound. Students not only will be able to focus more, they will increase their literacy skills with the CD player, junction box, and book/CD set. These tools will provide the opportunity to listen to a recording at the same time and follow along with a book. This will increase fluency, language skills, and work on comprehension skills as well.

With your donation, you will help set my students up for success by helping them focus with listening materials to improve literacy.

You will also give them the freedom of concentrating solely on their work and not become distracted by the noise from their neighbor. Their favorite book could be something heard from the Listening Center you helped provide.
