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 have eleven students in a Life Skills classroom. My students have different mental and physical abilities and their grade levels are 4th-5th. They all have different abilities and all are taught equally with much love surrounding them.

It has been challenging teaching this school year due to the pandemic and some of my students have different health issues that makes them more vulnerable to common disease and not to mention COVID-19.

My Project

The UV light and UV wands will helps us sanitize objects and surfaces faster with less exposure to chemicals for teachers and students, this will allow us to focus on instruction and less spend less time cleaning.

Clean surfaces help my students stay healthy and healthy students can come to school and learn face to face.

My students have issues handling their body fluids, they lack the ability to handle saliva and mucus and in consequences many of our surfaces and class manipulatives need to constantly wiped with chemical disinfectants.
