I Can Hear Better With My Headphones!

Help me give my students headphones with microphones so that they can learn how to pronounce new English words and phrases. The students will benefit very much from the use of the headphones.

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

The students in the English Language Arts Bilingual/ESL class will benefit from having headphones to use with their Chromebooks. The school supplies Chromebooks for the students to use. However, there are not enough headphones for the whole school. Therefore, having an organization that can provide the students with headphones will be a great service!

A lot of our students are newcomers who are learning a new language.

The school offers great programs for these students. These programs support them in a way that requires that the students use their listening, speaking and writing domain. The majority of the lessons are read aloud to the students and ask the students to participate. Therefore, having a pair of headphones for each student is absolutely important.
