Celebrating 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
For this proposal, I am requesting a digital translator to help with the communication in the art room. With the many languages spoken in a large city, we often struggle to ensure that all my students fully understand the instruction and lesson. This small tool will ease the discomfort and misunderstandings and create a more welcoming environment for many of my students. I want every kiddo to feel important and a valued member of the art room. This translator will relieve some stress and allow an ease to the room and create a happier creative environment.
