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 co-teach a class of students with severe intellectual disabilities. This school closure has thrown a wrench in my students' routines. Our students learn best by keeping a consistent schedule, which is not possible without the structure of being in an actual classroom. Many students receive various therapies in school which are not available online such as speech, occupational therapy, or physical therapy. One student is visually impaired, and another is completely nonverbal.

We stay in constant contact with families to determine their needs, and we are able to have face to face meetings with students once per week.

We are mailing out differentiated work for students to complete with us during our online meetings. Our entire district has free breakfast and lunch, but it is only available at 25 out of 150 schools, so it is often difficult for parents to get there if they have no transportation. I have been delivering to those that need it. We have also done porch drops of supplies that are needed to continue learning.

My Project

Our students have significant cognitive disabilities, and in a home environment, need to be able to block out the sounds around them so that they can concentrate on their work. This is difficult when there is often much going on at home. Families have other children and pets in the home, and while other family members are living their lives, it makes it difficult to focus on what is being taught.

These headsets will block out much of the background noise to help them attend to what is happening on screen.

Some of our students also have various speech needs. The microphones in these headsets will make what they say louder so they can be heard and understood. The students' speech pathologist joins our class meetings so they can continue, to the best of their ability, needed services.
