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

Help me give my students with Autism and sensory needs the ability to regulate their emotions through the use of sensory toys and objects. My students have different needs and the use of sensory tactiles such as play-doh, slime, fidget spinners, and other sensory and tactile objects will help them regulate their emotions and process them in a way that's more beneficial to themselves. With these types of items, they will be able to calm themselves down as well as help to give them the tools they need to succeed in the community when they are feeling frustrated. In addition, items such as noise cancelling headphones will also help them block out harmful stimuli. Pattern blocks and puzzles will help give them satisfying tactile sensation as well, which will help them satisfy their sensory needs. Leg bands for their chairs will help them with their sensory input as well.
