Celebrating 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
My fifth-grade students are amazed at unlimited potential but limited resources to fully explore their ideas. The students come from low-income homes where for some, they only interact with educational items at school. Our entire school receives free breakfast and lunch.
My students have a genuine love for learning.
They love to come in early and stay late to help and learn. I want to be able to nurture that love before it is lost. Every year I have the pleasure of teaching students of varying abilities, from highly gifted learners to special needs students, but they all bring the same thing to my class: the love of learning and the eagerness to do their best. Being a person with a disability myself, I want to show them that anyone can succeed regardless of their limitations. I want to fulfill my duty and give them every opportunity they deserve.
Because of Covid, things have become even more difficult, and teaching a hybrid class brings its own challenges. Technology has become a huge factor in being able to reach all my students. I want to give them every chance to succeed.
My Project
Help my students stay focused in class with headphones. Today's students have a mix of paper/pencil and online learning. Not all students have the ability to bring their own headphones from home. The problem occurs when students don't have headphones and are forced to either lower the volume on their computer programs or bother the students around them.
These headphones will allow them to excel in class and complete their daily assignments.
Every student should have the opportunity to be successful and these headphones will put those disadvantaged students on an even playing field.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
