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 ability to focus is crucial to a students success. We have a very late lunch and the students get hungry. Some students don't even have a breakfast to fuel their brains. The snacks will help to buffer the need for nourishment. The headphones will help provide focus as well. Many online assignments have verbal directions and some require students to speak into a microphone. Without the adequate material, the noise in the classroom would be too loud and distract others. Some students are second language learners and need their computer and headphones for support during instruction and for preparation for AZELLA.
