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

I teach a diverse group of students that have a wide variety of needs. I try to make sure that every detail of my instruction is geared towards what each child truly needs in order to grow and be great. My kids have such a vibrant energy that makes doing my job so very easy.

These headphones will help the students get their individualized work and differentiated station work done without interfering with the learning that is happening with the rest of their classmates.

My students use headphones on a daily basis because some of the best activities are digital and in video format. New headphones for my students will help my kids soar to greatness!
