Help me give my students more engaging activities through professional development with AirPods

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. N. Velarde's classroom raised $441

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 pandemic has affected everyone in different ways. It has also influenced how we lesson plan, teach, and do professional development meetings. The students are back in the classroom but motivating them to be focused has become a challenge. Students now more than ever need motivation and activities that will keep them engaged and learning. Since we are in the middle of a pandemic all of our Professional Development meetings are still virtual. These AirPods will be beneficial for the students because it will allow me to develop the knowledge and skills needed to address each of my students’ needs. The different trainings and professional development opportunities continue to be online, having AirPods that will cancel outside noise will be of great help.
