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

What a turn this pandemic has brought to our class. I teach at a school where most of my students are at poverty level and 99% of my kids are ELL students. MY students have a big heart and are always eager to learn something new. We lack the necessary technology to help us smoothly transition into this new pandemic period.

My students would really benefit if they had their own headphones to allow individual learning.

If they had their own set of headphones they will be able to learn, and at the same time be safe.

These headphones can help them continue their lessons with out to much exposure of others noises. It would also help to have a more controlled lesson at their own pace.

My Project

Today's society involves technology. Most of the games and apps are done with the use of technology. Technology in class is great for learning as well, because kids can have individualized work according to their own level.

However it is important that while all are working on different things they can each be focused on their own assignment.

With these headphones they will be able to have their own lesson going. They will also be able to answer their own and block out other noise that can impede them from concentrating.
