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

Our students use technology for reading on Epic, to complete math tasks on iReady, and to take many assessments. Headphones will help my students focus while they are using their technology.

Headphones help make lessons and instructions more easily heard.

They also create a calmer classroom environment as each student stays focused on their device.

Your donations will make our classroom routine easier to follow. At the moment, we are sharing the same headphones between multiple centers. This creates lots of waiting time as we switch the headphones to new devices. It also creates much wear and tear on the only headphones we have. Having a new set of headphones will allow students to keep their headphones at their desks and for us to have an extra set at the listening center that won't need to be moved.
