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 am a special education teacher who work with multiple content teachers in integrated co-teaching classes. I provide support for students based on their individual educational plans. Many of my students require specific scaffolds to access the content information in the curriculum. I like to provide visual aids as well as guided note sheets for all my students. This benefits the entire class.

The reams of copy paper requested in this project will make it possible for me to print out the necessary sets of class notes and visual aids for my students.

After returning from a year of remote learning due to Covid, many students are fatigued by staring at the screen and learning through Google Meets. They often request that assignments posted online be printed out on paper so they can complete them the old-fashioned way.

The shredder will be used to protect my student's privacy on their individualized education programs. We will try to use the shredded paper as mulch and composting.
