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 Students

My students are young learners (3 to 4 years old) who are either on the autism spectrum or present with speech and language delays. My students are all wonderful, and they are all unique, but they are atypical learners who require a great amount of adult support throughout the day.

My students are very active and inquisitive.

Several are in a school environment for the first time, and they are learning to use language, increase self-help skills, and interact with same-age peers. Many of my students who have varying levels of receptive and expressive language such as vocally imitating modeled words. All of my students are awesome, and they have all acquired new skills since entering our classroom.

My Project

During these challenging times, technology has become much more important in instructing all students. Now that all of my students have returned to the classroom, we are less dependent on technology but it is still a highly motivating and important part of the instructional process. We often use technology to reinforce academic skills taught in the classroom such as literacy and math skills. Technology is also effective as a reinforcer, that is, often my students are motivated to complete tasks in order to earn the use of technology such as an iPad.

Technology can be used to instruct students in all developmental domains, including: academic, speech and language and social skills.

There are a wide variety of apps that help teach skills such as self-help skills and communication skills such as requesting. iPads are ideal for teaching early learners these skills as they are much easier to use than a mouse and keyboard (I find most early learners have emergent fine-motor skills and often require support to use a computer).
