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

I teach 40 high school students who are on the spectrum. My students are motivated and eager to gain new skills. They are focusing their time in school on preparing for life after high school, which looks different for every student. Each student has individual goals and visions for their future; however, a common goal for all of them is to make friendships and strengthen their social skills.

The games (cornhole, Connect Four, and lawn bowling, for example) and art supplies (such as watercolors, paper, and Sharpies) will allow them to work together and support their social skills goals.

We look forward to having Fun Fridays where we learn social skills!
