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

Given that the new school year is approaching this also means that the Basics of Learning is also needed and by that I mean batteries, new toys, new items that will keep students interested in learning and being able to continue to thrive in their daily activities.

Given the opportunity to use the table light panel they will be able to see things in a different manner and given that it is small enough to move about every student no matter their disability will be able to use it consistently.

Students love being able to manipulate different object and with each one of these materials they will be able to use it to the best of their abilities and be able to enjoy the different sensations and textures they each have.

Being able to give students the most is costly but with the right support and determination everything is possible. My students given that they come from low economic backgrounds need that extra push and support to give them more each and every day..Thank You...
