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

The activities such as grasping objects with the tweezers will help the students build up the needed fine motor skills to be able to write in the future and hold a pencil. My students have special needs so anything that can help them build up those fine motor skills like the hedgehog activity can really help them and is important for esch student in my class! The wipes are extremely important because it helps us keep the classroom clean and organized and make sure the students are safe from unwanted germs.

The flexible seats will allow my students to focus and concentrate on the work in class because many of the sensory needs will be met.

My students all have there strengths and challenges but this will benefit all of them and

It will help them reach their goals!
