Celebrating 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 are greeted at the door every single morning. They are asked how their day is and they immediately run to greet their classmates. They are reminded throughout the day that they are role models, as they are constantly setting the example for others.
My classroom is full of 26 energetic students who see the bright side in everything they do.
They come from a low-income neighborhood and many from Spanish-speaking families. Although they come from a low-income neighborhood, they have a tremendous amount of potential to be leaders one day!
My Project
My students were asked to bring in headphones at the beginning of the year, but due to limited family funds only allowing the purchase of very cheap headphones, most of them have already broken. They have been using their computers and tablets on loud, which distracts their classmates from doing their own jobs.
We need new headphones to help us become better readers and stay focused on our assignments!
Using these headphones allows us to listen to our reading programs and stay engaged, rather than being distracted by our classmates who are working at other centers. Knowing that we have working headphones in the classroom will eliminate the stress of worrying about if their original headphones were good enough or not.
