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

Many of the students at the Title I school where I work at have limited access to books, technology, and digital resources at home; but through the school library, they have access to many books, eBooks, and online databases. These students come from diverse backgrounds, and some of the families are faced with the daily struggle to meet the family's basic needs.

As the school librarian, I want to get the students excited about reading and using technology in the library.

By giving students access to books and technology in the library, I hope to encourage the students to become lifelong learners and readers.

My Project

I am requesting a set of 10 headphones for students to use with iPads to create listening centers in the library. Students will be able to listen to and read eBooks that the school has already purchased. By using the iPads as listening centers, the headphones will help the students focus on the story on their iPad and be less distracted from all the other exciting things happening in the library.

The students are excited about visiting the library.

With this project, I will also be able to give students copies of favorite books that they can take home, read, and add to their own book collection.
