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 have the best students in the world! My school is located in a high-needs community. Most of my students receive free breakfast and lunch. My wonderful students come to school with smiles on their faces, ready to learn.

Although they struggle with extreme home situations, they often want someone to guide them into learning.

They are sweet and beautiful children who want to have fun and learn in a peaceful, fun classroom. I want to make that available to them!

My Project

I will be starting the new school year teaching my students remotely from my classroom. While I am in the classroom, we will be required to leave the doors and the windows open. I am concerned I will not be able to hear my students and I don't want to disturb other classes that are learning in the classroom.

The AirPods will allow me to hear my students clearly and answer any questions that they may have.

I want to make the lessons flow as smoothly as possible as well as keep their focus. Using the AirPods will allow me to move around the classroom to show them different charts.

With the AirPods, my students will not be distracted by the school bells and background noise.

I want to try my best to make sure we have a successful school year!
