Celebrating 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 students are wonderful, curious, and creative 7th graders at an urban, Title One public middle school.
This means that all students at my site receive free breakfast and lunch through the federally funded Free or Reduced Lunch Program.
I teach a wide range of students with diverse talents and needs ranging from Special Needs to Gifted education and everything in between. Our student body is very diverse and a reflection of the multicultural community we inhabit.
Additionally, recently, 4 student refugees from Afghanistan have joined my class. Having headphones will help them fully experience learning games and programs such as Duolingo.
My Project
The students in my room love to listen to audiobooks and hear texts read aloud. The problem is the old, poor quality, headphones in my room are falling apart.
Many of my students are reading 2-3 years behind grade level. Having auditory support can link struggling readers with texts they want to read. A little audio support goes a long way.
Additionally, students can use the microphone feature on the headphones to access the speech-to-text tool while composing on the computer.
