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 school year I have switched my role as a classroom teacher to a science teacher so I will need some different materials to assist my students. The students I will be working with this year are all in a self-contained specialized classes with classifications of autism spectrum disorder, students with emotional needs and intellectual disabilities.

The Learning Resources STEM Simple Machines Activity Set and The Learning Resources Silly Science Fine Motor Sorting Set will give my students the hands-on opportunity to learn and achieve their science goals.

They will learn how to

create and use simple machines and they will also learn how to sort germs and bacteria using their fine motor skills.

I also included pocket folders to organize the student work, sensory toys to help the students stay on task and "treasures" for classroom management.
