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
Some say teaching is difficult, but I am blessed to have a group of hard-working, enthusiastic students that brighten my everyday and make teaching so much easier.
They lead, inspire and motivate each other to learn and do more, not only for themselves but also for those around them.
They are the reason I go to work every day with a smile on my face ready to feed their active imaginations and give them all the tools for success.
My students are economically and culturally diverse coming from many backgrounds. Some transfer into the school from various cities nearby to be included in our leadership atmosphere, but most come from the zone around the neighborhood.
My Project
My class has a 1 to 1 iPad to student ratio. Since I also work for a Title I school, most students are unable to provide their own headphones.
These headphones would greatly improve how our iPads are used in the classroom.
Often, the students work individually on programs designed to target their specific needs. Headphones would be helpful for the students to be able to focus. This is especially true for students with learning disabilities and those identified as having ADD. These headphones would be used as a class set so every child is able to work hard on their own.
More than half 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
