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 students attend a public elementary Title I school with approximately 400 students. The student population consists of 24% are African American, 42% Latino/Mexican, 12% White and 1% Asian. 75% are economically disadvantaged and 34% are students with disabilities. Many are from foster and single-parent families.
I envision a brighter future for them.
They are so bright and full of energy. I see great potential in my students while helping them prepare for what's ahead in their bright future with many opportunities.
My Project
My classroom is 1-to-1 library with laptops. Allowing each student to have a pair of headphones would allow me to incorporate more learning opportunities for each student. Some lessons may require them to watch a video or listen to feedback from their programming letting them know if they need to debug. We use a programs like Code.Org or Scratch to help strengthen their computer science skills. The possibilities would be endless if each student had a set of headphones.
If each student has a set of headphones that they can use with their laptops, it would allow me to set up numerous lessons and learning centers to meet each of their learning needs.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
