Better Sound

Help me give my students headphones to wear during zoom classes so they do not get as distracted with outside noises.

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

I teach 9- 12 graders Spanish 2,3,4 and 5. My students love learning and being engaged. They are tremendously well-rounded individuals who enjoy learning about various communities and cultures. They are very hands-on and enjoy learning new things enthusiastically.

My students are very inquisitive and have a growth mindset.

The students are of varying abilities and would benefit from all the educational opportunities available. My students are fascinated by learning a new language and very much enjoy learning about the differences between Spanish and English. They look forward to increasing their knowledge of the Spanish language and applying what they are learning to the real world.

My Project

Please help me provide as many students as possible with functioning headphones to use with their school laptops at home. This will help the students be able to focus more on their work and avoid outside noise as best they can. This are difficult times for many and I would like to help as many students as possible to feel welcome and supported within the zoom classroom.

Your help will help many students stay connected to their learning and feel a sense of belonging.

Your help would be greatly appreciated in these challenging times.

Mrs. Virginia Belen Hernandez
Grades 9-12
