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

All the materials requested will help many English learners to be engaged with their learning process. Students frequently have issues with their computers and having extra computers in the classroom will help them to be on track for the activities presented in class. Moreover, students can submit their assignment on time while paying attention to the class. Also, having extra computer will help to minimize the constant use of telephones to complete assignments. While at the same time we are limiting distractions.

Additionally, providing the students with snacks helps them to be full of energy to be actively engage throughout the school day.

Students will have the opportunity to receive a positive reward if they are performing well in class.
