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 come to school daily with a desire to learn. They bring with them a passion to tackle whatever the day has in store. They work hard to achieve their goals. This particular group is the inaugural cohort in a Dual Language Program: they spend 50% of the time learning in English and the other 50% in Spanish. Because of this, they have a keen sense of global awareness.

My students come from varying ethnic backgrounds, and have learned to embrace and celebrate diversity since kindergarten.

They are a diverse group that embodies the melting pot that our community is well known for.

My Project

My students will greatly benefit from having a set of headphones with a microphone to help minimize distractions while participating in distance learning. Our district has decided to err on the side of caution and keep everyone safely at home during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Having their own headphones with a microphone will help my students completely immerse themselves in distance learning.

Many students live in homes where siblings are present, and parents are also working from home. By wearing headphones during our lessons and while doing their independent online learning, students will have an opportunity to focus on any given task at hand.
