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

Hi good morning,

I have students on spectrums, who face many challenges to communicate and to focus on task or pay attention to task.

I have requested board games which will definitely help my students to attain communication goals. Through the board games if they can even pay attention for few min or so. I can enhance their learning. Board games will definitely benefit my students to understand their social and emotional needs. They will learn the concept of turn taking. Also aid them to fell the sensory toys and tangible toys to keep them calm and composed. Thank you in advance.
