Headphones for Independent Learning

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

Help me give my students the opportunity to engage in independent learning experiences throughout the day. Headphones and mice can support students to read math problems, cancel noise while working independently, easily select/click /drag and drop responses, and work on differentiated reading lesson.

By providing my students with headphones and mice, the students will be able to complete academic challenges, projects, and standardized testing without interrupting the activities of others or become overwhelmed with the incapability's of a touch pad.

With the importance put on the standardized testing, we need each student to be able to hear directions and questions clearly, be capable of maneuvering through the test with ease, and avoid any interruptions that may occur from tech difficulties or volume.
