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

My students often do not eat during the day, and struggle with nutrition given social-emotional, and financial challenges. These healthy snacks will support their energy throughout the day, which will aid them in learning.

In addition, many of the students at my school get overwhelmed by sensory details and benefit from the use of fidgets and other items to self regulate.

In particular, my autistic students strongly benefit from these items.

Furthermore, my students need more structures in place, including timers. All of these items in my project will enable me to make a calmer, more productive classroom.
