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

The WiiM Amp and Sony bookshelf speakers we're requesting will make a big difference in our classroom for a couple of reasons. First, when we edit videos, the sound is super important. Right now, we only have a cheap pair of headphones, and it's tough to get the sound just right. Videos sound different when we present them on the classroom speakers, which can be really frustrating. With the new equipment, we can make sure our videos sound amazing both in headphones and out loud, which is crucial for sharing our projects with the class and even the whole school. Plus, when we're building robots, we like to listen to music. The new speakers will make our music sound better, which makes learning and building even more fun.

Our goals for this project are to improve our learning experiences and to make our classroom a place where everyone enjoys creating and collaborating.

We want to make sure our videos are the best they can be because we work hard on them and are proud of what we create. By having the right equipment, we can focus more on being creative and less on fixing technical issues. What makes my students special is their creativity and teamwork. They come up with incredible ideas for their projects and work together to bring those ideas to life. With the WiiM Amp and Sony speakers, we can enhance our projects and make our classroom a space where everyone's excited to learn and create together.
