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 Students

There are so many wonderful things about our students. Our students are creative, curious, and enthusiastic! They are all special in their own individual ways. All of our students have amazing potential that my paraprofessional, teachers and myself try to build upon. We like to use a variety of different tools to help them make gains academically and socially.

My Project

Being remote has definitely had its challenges. We are always looking for ways to help our students be successful. Working remotely at home or in a learning center can be distracting and noisy. These headphones will help to keep the students engaged and connected. The headphones can allow us to better support all the different levels of learners in our classes at the same time.

While they are on Zoom or working with an online app the students can use these headphones to keep them focused and active in the lesson being taught.

These will help while the students are at home and when they get back into the classroom. My students say that they like to use headphones because they help to block out the distracting sounds around them. They can hear what the teacher is saying and they help them to follow along with the lesson. By donating to this cause it will greatly help with improving our students learning and giving them another tool so they can be successful!
