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

Working as a school-based occupational therapist it is my job to assist neurodiverse students in accessing their education. Most of my students have sensory processing difficulties causing it to be more challenging for them to perform the meaningful activities (occupations) required for their role as a student and access their education.

It is my goal to provide them with materials and activities to improve their skills to perform the meaningful activities (occupations) required for their role as a student and access their education.

With items such as Lakeshore Squish & Squeeze Sensory Beads, Wettarn 9 Pcs Sensory Bin Filler Fine Motor Skills Handy Scooper Set Sensory Bin Tools Sensory Tools, Lakeshore Sensory Sand Ice Cream Set, All-in-One Tactile Sensory Toys, Double Sand Wheel Beach Toy Set for Kids with Bucket, 10 Pack Plastic Art Trays, and Kinetic Sand, they can improve their sensory integration skills and thus perform their role as a student and access their education.

My students are so easy to love and I want to do anything and everything possible to provide them with all the equipment they need to improve their sensory processing to make their academic experience constructive and adequate.
