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

Technology plays an important part of our education. My students are lucky enough to have individual Chromebooks in the classroom, however headphones have been a challenge. Many of my students do not have access to quality headphones.

Headphones are essential to a productive lesson and content review in the classroom.

My students will use the headphones for Reading, Math, and Language Arts lessons and skills. As well as EPIC! and I-Ready. These resources provide students with the opportunity to polish their Math, Reading, and Language Arts skills. Most importantly they will provide a quiet environment for all of my students in the classroom.
