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

My students are inquisitive, inspiring, and eager to learn. They are individuals who have special educational needs. Many of my students have specific learning disabilities. Several students receive language and speech services, and some of my students have autism and other health impairments.

All of my students need to meet and hopefully exceed academic, social, career, vocation, and college standards.

Most of my students read between the pre-primer and the second-grade levels; few students read above the second-grade level. Most of my students qualify for our school meal program.

It is essential for my students to improve their academic skills to increase their success in middle school, high school, college, and in their chosen career paths. With your help, my students can increase their skills. Your support will encourage, motivate, and lead my students to strive to become lifelong learners with greater possibilities of wonderful careers in their near futures.

My Project

My students have stated that our speaker system needs to be upgraded. Sometimes the speakers work; sometimes the speakers don't work. My students get frustrated when we have to trouble shoot the speaker system. We don't know if it is the connection or the cords; but it takes time away from our activities and lessons. My students want to have their speaker system work seamlessly; with working connections and wires. The system we have right now has an abundance of wires to it makes it harder to problems solve quickly. We use our speakers often. We could be watching an educational video on Egypt, China, or the Revolutionary War. We might use it for BrainPOP, Discovery Education, PBS Learning Media; Flocabulary, Nearpod, Sound trap, or Flip Grid. We even have the ability to use the speakers for "Speech to Text to access the lessons in our Digital Textbook. All these activities/lessons need speakers in good working condition to be successfully implemented.
