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 item will benefit my sensory seeking students that need to jump, move around, be upside down in order to regulate themselves from emotions that are new to them. By having a trampoline in the classroom, it will help them regulate themselves and continue with their learning after their sensory needs have been met. The trampoline will be a tool used to help regulate their emotions.

My students are all special in their own way, some are Autistic and all are unique.

My students all have a wide range of disabilities and will benefit by having a trampoline in the classroom.

A teaching easel will make it easy for my restricted Special Education student to participate in hands-on activities.
