Have you ever negotiated a price in a market, for a house or for a car? Have you ever been involved in a debate? Have you ever recorded a video (or dare I say it, a Tik Tok?) and then not had the sound work? As seems to be the theme in 2020, things are unorthodox and we have to roll with the punches. All of those experiences listed above involve key aspects of language and communication, and are all examples of activities we do in my Dual Language Immersion Spanish classes. As is the case in our everyday life this year, our in-class language experiences must be different given our Covid-19 safety protocols, but surely nothing will hold our students back. These headsets with mics can make these language learning experiences as realistic as possible during this time, and we need your help. With these headsets, students will be able to maximize their classroom participation by engaging in discussion, debates, conversations, audio books, presentations and more while simultaneously following our district's Covid-19 safety protocols. Through these different activities, and with the help of the headsets, students will be able to continue to grow in their language learning and proficiency and improve their communication. This growth will not only help them learn new, important skills in the present, but also set them up to be successful and skilled leaders and communicators in the future.
