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

This is my third year of teaching, and I am already hooked. Hooked on the passion of my students, the new perspective I have on education, and the challenge of growing their brains every day. It is my goal every single day to walk into that classroom and design a space that is nurturing and promotes independent learning.

My students come from a wide variety of cultures and neighborhoods in the Los Angeles area, and are in desperate need of a nurturing classroom.

My school aims to mix socioeconomic groups as a way to promote a successful and meaningful learning environment for all students. While it is a Title I magnet school, it has opened its doors to the nearby community. As the area around the school gentrifies, we must adapt and change with it. As their educator, I will do anything to create a classroom where they can thrive.

My Project

These retro handsets will give my students the ability to read to their parents from the classroom! Students plug in the handset to the iPad and share what they learned that day. They can read books, share new learning, and listen to any comments their parents leave them.

These phones provide parent student connection, motivate students to learn, and give parents the opportunity to be in the classroom when they can't.

Right now my students try to record comments, but it is too difficult to hear with a noisy classroom. These handsets will remove the background noise and amplify student voice.
