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

Being up and ready for school on time is very important for students, so that they start the day off right. Many of our students are having issues getting up on time and are late to school daily. They have asked if we could provide them with an alarm clock to help them get ready for school on time. We plan to use these alarm clocks in school to show students how to use them to wake up, be on time and never be late again for anything important in life. Being on time is a life skill that many students lack and we are hoping to use these alarm clocks to teach the skill of how important it is to be on time to class daily!
