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

Hello, friends! My students, ages 3-5, are special education preschoolers.

Their disabilities and needs vary from student to student, including autism, Down syndrome, speech impairments, intellectual disability, health impairments, and many others.

Due to their short attention spans and their wide range of needs, we are constantly transitioning from one activity to the next, as well as targeting different learning levels. To say they keep us on our toes is an understatement! They are an active and eager to learn group of preschoolers who deserve more!

My Project

Our curriculum is play-based, which encourages our students to learn through their play. The concept is to build upon the chid's existing abilities and allow them to lead in their learning.

Our students, particularly students with autism, greatly benefit from dramatic play activities.

These activities allow them to further develop their social-emotional, language, physical, and cognitive development. These resources will enhance the study units from our curriculum, such as the Trees Study, Pets Study, Buildings Study, and Clothes Study. Some of these materials overlap and will be used for more than one unit study, such as the tree house, which can be used in both the Trees and Buildings Studies.
