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 a group of ten wonderfully, bright and happy children. They are in a special education classroom, on a modified curriculum, which means they learn at their own pace and are not subject to the general education curriculum or learning timeline. My students are in my classroom due to a label of Intellectually Disabled, Other Health Impaired, and/or Autism. They require a lot assistance to learn and to complete activities. Some need assistance with gross motor and fine motor skills such as hand under hand for writing activities. Others are still being potty trained, and all have trouble retaining and recalling educational information. I have children that have been hospital/home bound for medical reasons, and this is their first year in a school. They are my superstars, and they love music, painting, dancing and most things in color and interactive.

"All kids need is a little help, a little hope, and someone who believes in them." - Magic Johnson

My Project

My students are on a modified curriculum and get a lot more out of fun, colorful activities instead of black and white worksheets. My class is running low on some of the supplies that help make these activities colorful and fun. We work on a lot of hands-on and fine motor activities. We do a lot of cutting, tracing, coloring, and writing activities to help work on strengthening those fine motor muscles.

My students are in a Title I school and sometimes do not have the economic means to purchase school supplies.

We need construction paper, pencils, and colored ink. This donation would be a great help to getting us through the school year as we continue to make their activities a little brighter and more appealing.
