FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hobbs's classroom raised $174

This project is fully funded

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

This project will enhance my student’s overall learning and allow them the opportunity to practice essential language skills. These headphones will allow my students more efficient ways to listen to a variety of multimedia presented in lessons throughout the school day as well as translate spoken word more accurately and effectively.

In addition, these headphones will allow my students to engage better with written text by using read aloud online extensions and complete extended writing assignments utilizing speech to text applications.

Funding of this project will have a significant impact on my current and future students.
