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 students have been diagnosed with various forms of disabilities, but their primary disability is autism and speech impairment. My students have extreme difficulties and deficits in the areas of language and social functioning, and they exhibit repetitive behaviors, interests, or activities and differences in sensory input.

Although each of my students exhibits sensory input in their own unique way, through effective strategies, their unique needs are addressed to enable them to learn.

One of these strategies is through the implementation of the sensory approach and social skills activities.

My Project

A lot of my students live in one-income households and struggle financially to meet basic needs. They come to school hungry and oftentimes the food they eat at school is their only daily meal.

The Chips, noodles, and juice will be used as a positive reinforcement during classroom instruction and to eliminate hunger.

My students will be able to eat the noodles for dinner at home, along with the snacks. The snacks, noodles, and juice will enhance student attendance, increase student participation in classroom activities, reduce student behavior that interrupts learning, and boost my students' confidence and self-esteem
