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.
The majority of my students are experiencing school for the first time, and they are so excited to learn! Many of my students are Spanish speaking, living in a low-income neighborhood, and the majority of my students are receiving free meals during the school day.
Making school a fun place to learn is so important because kindergarten is the foundational year of their education.
My classroom provides the consistency and support my students need. I want to utilize all of the technology and educational resources that I can to give my students real life, hands-on experiences to make their learning meaningful. I am setting my students up for success!
My Project
My kindergarten students use their mini iPads about 90% of our day for both group and individual learning activities. When it comes time to use our headphones, disaster strikes on a daily basis! The cords break very easily leaving exposed wires. Often times, their current headphone cords become tangled in knots and the students cannot undo them. I have a line of students waiting for me to "fix" their headphones on a daily basis. Untangling these cords is very time consuming and it takes away precious learning time on the iPad.
My students need these headphones in order to make the most out of every minute they use their iPad in class!
Many of my families cannot afford to send in a nice pair of headphones for their child to use, so they send in earbuds. The earbuds are too big for my student's ears and they often fall out. So, rather than having both hands available to use the iPad, one and is holding the earbud in place.
These headphones will cut down on student (and teacher) frustration! In addition, it will allow for more time to learn and explore on the iPad instead of waiting form me to fix the cord on their current headphones.
In addition, I am asking for two charging stations for the headphones. I find that the wireless headphones need to be charged often and having these two charging stations available will allow my students to independently charge their headphones when needed.
