FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Diaz's classroom raised $180
This project is fully funded
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
My students are an energetic group of learners who are trying to learn English as their second language.
My team and I teach bilingual middle school students that are newly arrived to the country from different parts of the world.
Many of them have gaps in their education of more than two years. My team and I work tirelessly to not only teach them a new language, but also prepare them for school and life in a new country. As with any change in life, there are times of adjustment, but unfortunately these students only have three years to be able to learn enough to be placed in all English classes.
My Project
These materials will help my students use a computer program that will help them acquire English. My students have only three years to learn a new language to be placed in an all English class. These headphones will be used as a big part of the program. Having these materials will go a long way in helping the students participate more in the program. Having the students able to record their voice at the beginning of the year and comparing that to how they will be speak at the end of the year is the goal that my team and I are striving for.
More than half of students from low‑income households
