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 a special day class of 15 students with a wide range of disabilities. They are kinesthetic learners, and love learning with fun manipulatives.

We recently got a donation of a light table and need some light table accessories to go with our learning.

The light table is a fun and engaging way for the students to learn and practice many skills from phonics, math, STEM and develop language when collaborating with peers.

My kiddos love working with anything that provides sensory and the accessories will be great tools.
