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

My students will love the materials and supplies I am requesting as our current headphones and plug-in computer mice are old and broken. It's a mad dash every day for the remaining working items we have since we currently do not have enough for every student. Working at a STEAM school with a heavy emphasis on technology, my students use one-to-one Chromebooks with touch pads that are very hard to navigate. With the use of a computer mouse, students are able to use their equipment more efficiently.

When testing or listening to videos individually, it is crucial to have working headphones!

By donating to our project you will help my classroom be more equitable for all students. The stress of the new school year starting has been exciting yet nerve-racking. With the fidget toys for my quiet library corner, I will be able to give my students a choice of fidgets to relieve some of that stress. I want my students to be able to use the technology and fidgets to thrive this year!
