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

My students are needing headphones to use with their chromebooks. I now have 35 students in my newcomer class and they rely on verbal translation from their chromebooks to help them. Some of my students like to use the headphones to muffle out the outside noise.

Students like listening to music to help them calm down and it would help me not have to borrow headphones from the school.

This is so I can have a classroom set that can stay in my classroom for the remainder of the school year.
