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 student are loving, energetic, care free souls who although profoundly disabled they have a love for learning. My students attend a Title I school and unfortunately because they are older students several have little to no parent support. My student are currently in person learning with maximum social distancing orders due to their disabilities.

Everyday we face challenges while having any bit of success that can be praised.

They may be mentally fragile and receive accommodations but they will truly steal your heart. It is my daily goal to do what ever needed to ensure that they are as successful as possible.

My Project

Photography can be a great way to help students with disabilities appreciate and highlight their creative perspectives as well as work on their communication and social skills. Many students with disabilities have challenges socializing with their peers and recognizing social cues and nonverbal signals such as body language and facial expressions. These students, and others whose disability affects their ability to collaborate with peers and participate in group projects, could be given a greater opportunity for success through photography. Students will learn that there’s are many ways to express their creativity. I would like to encourage flexible, abstract thinking to promote the expression of feelings and emotions through a tangible image so that students can learn how to express themselves better. Students can take pictures of toys, action figures, clouds, trees, faces, friends, etc. By sharing why they took that picture and what that picture makes them feel, students will be able to work on their social/communication skills.
