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 amazing! They’re enthusiastic and come to school eager to learn. We are a Title 1 school with 100% of the students participating in a lunch program.
The majority of my students come from a low socioeconomic background with limited resources and life experiences.
It’s important for first graders to learn basic foundational skills especially in the areas of reading, writing, and math. I know that if we provide these children with a positive and enriching environment with the proper resources, these students will flourish and succeed!
My Project
Students will use the headphones while using the iPads to reinforce their phonics, reading, spelling, and math skills. Having headphones will allow students to sit next to each other without distractions. Most of the students can’t afford to bring headphones to school and many of the earbuds don’t fit their little ears properly.
This project would definitely reduce the noise level in the classroom which will allow for better focus for all students.
Students can work on their iPads near each other while other students can read, work in small groups, and do other independent work. The use of headphones will create an ideal learning environment.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
