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

I teach extraordinary kindergarten and first grade students that have diverse learning needs. My classroom is comprised of 14 students that have an individualized education program due to various learning disabilities, developmental delays, sensory needs, and behavioral needs. Students come into my classroom with an individualized education program so we can meet their unique needs for success in all areas of their development. We use different strategies so they can reach the curriculum in different ways.

Together we learn and grow from one another.

Our classroom is filled with unique abilities and personalities that allow us to accept and recognize our differences that make us special.

My students are wonderful! They want to learn and be engaged. The environment provided for them gives them a place to feel safe, confident, and know it's okay to learn from mistakes. They are excited to show their new skills. We are a community of Learners that encourage and help each other. Our classroom learns from one another, accepts our differences, and encourages each other. I am proud to be their teacher and hope to inspire them in their continued success!

My Project

We are fortunate enough to have a class set of iPads that are used to enhance our learning and engage our multi-sensory students. Not all students have headphones and they are kept in their homerooms so we are left without headphones in our classroom. The volume is disturbing when students are on iPads and they can't hear what they should be listening to on their own iPads. There are also times that students are listening to a story, math songs, or completing an activity together and just can't hear it. Students become distracted, frustrated, and disengaged when they hear the other iPads around them.

The headphones will allow students to focus and remain engaged.

The over the ear headphones will enhance my students learning. The splitters will also allow for two students to listen to a story together without distracting the whole group. This will create a classroom that is focused and engaged to work at centers, independently, and in small groups. I appreciate your donation to finally let us hear what we are doing!
