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

In today's digital age, classrooms increasingly rely on technology to enhance the learning experience. From laptops to tablets, drones, robots, and other devices students and teachers are using multiple devices to enhance their learning. As a technology-driven teacher, my main priority is supplying my classroom with technology and comfort. Charging their devices and providing a seating place for the students to sit while charging them has become an issue and this project will help get the students exactly what they need to be comfortable while charging.

With limited electrical outlets in the classroom, there is a pressing need for multi-port chargers.

A multi-port charger can efficiently charge multiple devices simultaneously, ensuring that students can access fully charged devices throughout the day. In addition to charging, I added some rugs so the students don't have to sit on the cold floor and instead on a comfy rug next to the outlet.
