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

Ten of my twenty students are between three to five years old. They have been identified with a special need and are on an Individual Education Plan. These needs include Autism Spectrum Disorder, Speech and Language delays, Cognitive Delays, difficulty with Fine and Gross Motor Skills, along with other associated diagnoses. The additional ten students are typically developing Pre-K students.

All of my students are learning how to work cooperatively in the following areas: social-emotional, language, and literacy, fine and gross motor skills, adaptive behavior, and cognitive growth.

The school population is made up of all cultures and economic situations. The school provides free breakfast to all students and has a free or reduced-price lunch program for those who qualify. The teachers and administration present safe, working classrooms for all students to grow and develop in a collaborative atmosphere.

My Project

In my classroom, communication is the key to growth and development. That includes using a unique plan for students of all abilities. This year I have many students struggling to express their wants and needs using their voices. I am relying on pointing, hand pulling, gestures, jargon, picture cards, and a lot of trial and error methods.

The products I am requesting will give a voice to my students.

It will allow them to participate in daily activities like choice-making, singing songs, participating in answering questions at storytime, interacting with peers to create shareable moments, and increasing learning gains.
