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

I teach in a Self-Contained Special Education setting where every one of my students have special needs, varying from learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Emotional Disturbances, speech and language delays, difficult home life, etc. In addition, my students all come from low-income households. All of my students are sweet and motivated learners. They love to learn letters, sounds, number, strategies, and so much more. They are very hands-on and they learn through various modalities. Each and every one of my students is extremely creative and unique. They make my day each and every day and I wouldn't trade them for the world!

My Project

These materials will not only allow my students to enjoy their holiday season with excitement and motivation, but they will truly allow my students an opportunity to learn when they are not in school, through creativity and fun. These materials are targeted towards hands-on and multisensory learning, skills that we are learning in the classroom, and much more. These materials are also familiar to families and therefore, families can easily assist and motivate their children to use the materials at home. From leveled readers to sight word review to math review, and various writing utensils and art supplies, my students will be set and excited to learn at home with the guidance of their teacher and families!
