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 Project

This project aims to provide my students with an iPad and Apple Pencil, which will be valuable tools for helping them develop self-care skills, handwriting, fine motor skills, and social-emotional skills. Many of my students have disabilities, and some face challenges with communication. The iPad offers a fun, interactive way to engage them in learning, making it easier for them to practice these essential skills. My goal is to help these students build confidence and independence, improving their ability to participate more fully in the classroom. With the right tools, my students can thrive and take meaningful steps toward their personal and academic growth.
