Helping students to increase their learning abilities!

Help me give my students headphones to increase and individualize their learning experiences in the classroom. Alternative seating choices, will offer students a safe place to deescalate when they are feeling anxious, stressed or overwhelmed.

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

My students come from low social economic households. It is impertinent for their educational experience to have the necessary equipment to promote them to their highest learning abilities. We have noticed with teaching our students that a snack during the day increases their motivation to learn. Also, if we offer them a safe and positive environment in the classroom, it helps them learn the skills they will find necessary in their further educational experiences. Our students are beginning to learn how to work independently, with these materials our students succeed.
