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

I teach an Intellectual Disability Severe K-5th grade class. Every single student is unique. Even though I have not met them personally I see that each possesses different abilities and characteristics that make them special. Since they are nonverbal, they communicate with their actions. At times, I see when they need a break because they start getting up or when they enjoy a song because they dance. It is a way for them to communicate with us. We focus on their strength to meet their needs.

My Project

These materials will be used to provide my students with material to work at home and during our synchronous time in color instead of the black and white copies. The color on the pages helps my students catch their attention and it also helps my low-vision students. It is beneficial for students to still practice those fine motor skills (e.g grabbing a crayon) at home. With the color worksheets that we do together, they are able to practice this IEP goal. Most of our curriculum material I print it and sent it home for them to have during our synchronous time.
