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

My students enjoy school immensely. Sometimes they get so excited about learning it seems they will just burst. It is infectious.

My students are from a high-poverty region and are predominantly bilingual or English Language Learners.

The students and their families are motivated learners. Some of our parents even come to school to learn along with their children. They are all excited to discover and explore. My amazing kids are deserving of so much more than their economic status currently allows and I want to do everything I can to help them reach a brighter future.

My Project

All of my students want to learn and hear their computers in the computer lab. The lab serves about 500 students through the week from KDG- 5th grade.

Right now we have many headphones that are not working properly for students to work on the computers.

We have headphones that are taped up with electrical tape, wires showing on some, and students have to use headphones without ear pads. The headphones will help all of my students tremendously. They will become better at any instructional program that they are working with because they will be able to hear. I just really want my students to be able to enjoy the sound on their programs. I think they will love the purple color too!
