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

As a self-contained special education teacher, I believe in engaging activities such as interactive notebooks and centers for my students. Teachers Pay Teachers has amazing literacy, math and SEL centers in which I print, cut and laminate to keep for years. Students are able to play these games independently and I am able to provide a more individualized instruction to my students.

Fun literacy and math mini-games, interactive notebooks, organizational bundles, word walls, and much more can all be purchased through Teachers Pay Teachers to ensure I have enough engaging resources to stimulate these young minds.

Many of my students are on various levels and with the use of Teachers Pay Teachers, I will be able to provide much differentiated and engaging activities! This year, I have 3rd and 4th grade students with severe disabilities. All my students are between a Pre-K - 1st grade level and I require many options in order to reach optimal success from my students!
