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

Having a TV in the classroom would allow students to get a better view of the lesson, materials, and media we use each day.

It can be hard to see the current screen from all angles of the classroom, and a TV would help give access to all students.

Students are often working in pairs and in groups on projects as we study world history, and I strive to ensure that everyone has access to the materials. A TV provides a sharp, high quality picture of the lessons I display for students.
