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

My students are Deaf and/or Hard-of-Hearing students who have a love of learning. Most of my students are from a low-income, urban setting in NYC. My students are in a self-contained, special education class. They are a cheerful bunch who have studied together since their early elementary years and are now approaching their 5th grade graduation.

As their speech-language teacher, we have developed such great bonds and are working towards creating independence as they transition into middle school.

My students are multisensory learners who rely heavily on tactile and visual information. These alarm clocks provides the necessary accessibility- lights and vibrations, needed to foster their independence.
